BICYCLISTS HAVE RIGHTS
In Pennsylvania, a bicycle is considered a vehicle. Like all drivers, bicyclists must follow the rules of the road and take steps to protect their own safety. However, bicycle accidents are rarely the fault of the biker.
ACCIDENTS INVOLVING CHILDREN
A bicycle is a traditional part of an American childhood. Unfortunately, many bicycle accident victims are children. Because children lack the judgement to avoid accidents, drivers have an increased duty of care.
BICYCLE-CAR ACCIDENTS
Because bicycle-car accidents can result in very serious injuries, Pennsylvania drivers have a “duty of care” towards bicyclists. This means that drivers must watch for bicyclists and take steps to avoid accidents.
