Common Bicycle Accident Injuries

Turning Vehicles

Drivers who are not attentive may fail to notice bicyclists on the road. Vehicles turning right or left often turn directly into or in front of bicyclists, resulting in serious accidents.

Stop Signs

At intersections, drivers with stop signs often fail to yield to bicyclists with the right of way.

Rear-End Collisions

Even a minor collision from the back can make a cyclist lose control, leading to severe injuries.

Spinal Cord Injuries

If your spinal cord is compressed or stretched due to an impact, it can lead to severe and permanent injuries. These injuries may cause the loss of sensation and movement in certain parts of your body, and in the most serious cases, paralysis can occur. Remember, some injuries may not be immediately apparent, and having a medical record will be beneficial if any issues arise later.

Brain Injuries

Although bicyclists wear helmets, they may still sustain traumatic brain injuries during an accident, resulting in symptoms such as migraines, personality changes, and acute pain.

Amputations

Due to the vulnerability of bicyclists to cars, accidents can result in life-changing injuries and extensive pain. In some cases, amputation of the injured body part may be necessary.

 
Fractures

Bicyclists are highly vulnerable in crashes and often suffer broken bones such as legs, arms, or ribs.
