There are two kinds of bicycle crash cases. In one scenario, typically, a motor vehicle commits an error, fails to notice the bicycle, collides with the cyclist, and results in serious injury. The other type involves a person riding their bicycle when a sudden crash occurs due to a product failure. I have experience handling both types of cases, driven by my particular interest in product liability, especially in bicycle crash cases related to issues like carbon fiber failure or bolt failure. These instances, however, represent two distinct areas within bicycle crash cases. One involves injuries caused by a motor vehicle that shouldn’t have collided, while the other pertains to injuries resulting from bicycle failure, which should not have occurred.
Denver, CO personal injury lawyer George McLaughlin talks about his experience in handling bicycle accident cases. He explains that bicycle crash cases generally fall into two categories. In the first, a motor vehicle driver makes an error—failing to see the cyclist—and collides with them, often causing serious injury. The second type arises when a cyclist experiences a sudden crash due to a product failure, such as a broken carbon fiber frame or a failed bolt. He has experience handling both types of cases, with a particular focus on product liability. While both categories involve significant injury, they are distinct: one involves negligence on the part of a motorist, and the other involves a defect in the bicycle that should not have occurred.
