305 HURT - Miami Bicycle Accident Lawyer

Biking is a popular year-round activity in South Florida. However, with roads busier than ever, biking has become a dangerous hobby, even with bike lanes! Because riders don’t have the protections of seat belts, airbags or a vehicle structure to protect them in a crash, injuries are often catastrophic.
If you or a loved one has been injured in a biking accident, contact 305 HURT today for a free and confidential consultation and case evaluation at 305-865-9100.
While we are based in Miami, we handle bicycle accident cases that happen anywhere in the state of Florida.

Florida Bicycle Accident Facts

Common Injuries from Bicycle Accidents

Common injuries from bicycle accidents can range from minor to severe, often depending on factors like speed, collision impact, and whether the cyclist was wearing protective gear. Some of the most frequent injuries include:

  • Traumatic brain injuries (TBIs) are common, especially if the cyclist is not wearing a helmet. These can range from concussions to severe brain damage.
  • Collarbones, arms, legs, wrists, and ribs are commonly broken in bike accidents, particularly if the cyclist falls hard on the pavement or is struck by a vehicle.
  • When a rider skids across the pavement, it can result in severe skin abrasions or burns.
  • Cyclists can suffer cuts, fractures, or dental injuries to the face, especially if they are thrown over the handlebars or hit by a vehicle.
  • Torn muscles, ligaments, or tendons, particularly in the neck, shoulders, and knees can occur in high-impact collisions or falls.
  • Damage to internal organs, such as the lungs or liver, can occur from blunt-force trauma, especially if a vehicle strikes the cyclist.
  • Whiplash, strains or herniated discs in the neck and back can result from sudden stops, or falling off the bike
  • Cyclists often instinctively put out their hands to break a fall, leading to fractures or sprains in the hands and wrists.
  • Direct impact or twisting during a crash can cause serious knee injuries, including ligament tears or dislocations.
