If you’ve been involved in a bicycle accident, you’re in the right place. We provide all the necessary information and advice to help you recover. Our solicitors can manage your legal claim and help you secure the compensation you are entitled to.
Start your claim
Most cycling accidents occur because motorists fail to see the cyclist, particularly at roundabouts or T-junctions. Approximately 75% of serious injuries happen in urban areas near junctions, with roundabouts being particularly hazardous.
Common causes of bicycle accidents include:
Motorists pulling out from a side road
Drivers switching lanes without seeing a cyclist
Car doors opening into the path of a cyclist
Merging into a lane without noticing a cyclist
Failing to stop at a junction
Mounting the kerb in the cyclist's path
Children playing on bikes in the street
Other cyclists
Children and young adults often get involved in cycle accidents due to stunts, high speeds, loss of control, inexperience, or playing on the road. Reports suggest that 34% of these accidents are due to improper manoeuvring or cycling in a rush.
More accidents occur during the day than at night. Many claims arise from accidents in major cities like Manchester, Birmingham, Leeds, and Liverpool, with London seeing persistent issues due to heavy road congestion.
