Bicycle Accidents In Palm Springs, the Entire Coachella Valley and Throughout California
California offers beautiful weather for cycling, yet every year, nearly 150 cyclists lose their lives in traffic accidents. California laws give cyclists the right to share the road with cars and trucks, however these vehicles are vastly overpowered when placed aside a car or truck on a crowded highway. When sharing the road, cyclists must follow the same traffic laws as other vehicles, which include obeying traffic signs and signals. They must also ride in the same direction as traffic.
Today in California, motorists are required to give bicycle riders three feet of safety, yet as one drives down the highway, most motorists still seem unaware of the new law or feel the bicyclist needs to be riding so close to the curb so as to cause them to crash the moment one of their pedals touches the curb.
A great many bicycle and Ebike accidents often occur at intersections, during turns, and when vehicles are merging or changing lanes. Other motorists may not see or may ignore a cyclist, or may try to pass them without enough distance. The roads can also be full of potholes and debris, which makes it unsafe and difficult for cyclists to pass. In any case, the results for cyclists can be disastrous.
