In crowded NYC streets, bicycles are a favored mode of transportation, whether used by messengers, restaurant delivery workers, or anyone seeking a pleasant way to navigate the city. Unfortunately, motorists often overlook cyclists on the road, particularly in New York City.
Cyclists, including motorcyclists, are more vulnerable when it comes to navigating streets and having to share the road with enclosed motorists.
In 2019, there were over 3,800 motor vehicle collisions in New York involving a bicyclist where the cyclist was seriously injured or killed.
Even if you do everything right while practicing safe cycling, you are extremely vulnerable on a bike.
Even the most experienced cyclists are no match for an inattentive driver.
If you or your loved one have been seriously hurt while on your bicycle due to someone else’s negligence, you deserve the chance to protect your rights. Contact Pulvers, Pulvers & Thompson today to speak to an attorney.
