Gastonia, NC Bicycle Accidents: Important Information

Bicycle accidents are not extremely common in Gastonia, but they do occur. Such accidents can leave victims with major injuries, particularly when they involve collisions.

This is due to the unique way in which bicyclists are vulnerable on Gastonia’s roads. A car or other such enclosed vehicle provides its occupants with a certain degree of protection from harm due to the metal frame that surrounds them. A minor collision in a car might not be likely to cause extremely severe harm.

Such a collision can, however, significantly injure a bicyclist who does not have an enclosed vehicle’s metal frame to protect them.

If you are involved in a Gastonia bicycle accident, odds are good your injuries will require costly medical treatment, and may even result in lost wages if they prevent you from working. Some injuries a bicycle accident can cause may be so severe that they have a permanent impact on your quality of life.

These losses are both costly and painful to sustain. If you suffer them because a driver was negligent, you can pursue compensation accordingly by filing a claim or lawsuit to collect from their insurance.

Just be aware that an insurance company will probably attempt to “lowball” you in an effort to avoid paying out as much as you may deserve based on the extent of your injuries. An insurer may even deny your claim by arguing that you have not provided sufficient evidence indicating your accident was caused by a driver’s negligence.
