Building an Allen Bicycle Versus Car Collision Claim

Trujillo & Sanchez, P.C., is a personal injury law firm serving Allen and greater Collin County. When a car strikes a person on a bicycle, significant injuries can occur. Even with a helmet, the cyclist could suffer traumatic brain injuries, spinal cord injuries, internal injuries, fractures, and other serious and lasting issues.

In many cases, the cyclist follows all applicable laws when the accident occurs. The driver, however, may make a careless or reckless mistake. Common causes of bicycle accident injuries include:

  • Distracted driving
  • Failure to yield when turning
  • Not giving a cyclist enough space when passing
  • Failure to see the cyclist when checking for oncoming traffic
  • Not clearing the adjacent lane when changing lanes or merging
  • Opening a car door into a bike lane after parallel parking

When a driver causes one of these crashes, the bicyclist or their surviving family members can pursue compensation if they can show the driver was negligent. Four elements must be present to prove negligence:

  • The driver owed the cyclist a certain duty of care, such as leaving at least 3 feet when passing them on the road.
  • The driver failed to uphold that duty of care, violating a traffic law or ordinance.
  • The driver’s failure caused the collision.
  • The cyclist suffered injuries and financial damages because of the collision.

Our attorneys in Allen know how to investigate these cases, identify and gather evidence, and build a strong argument to show the driver is legally responsible for the physical, psychological, and financial harm the victim suffered.

Taking Action to Recover Compensation in Your Case

While our attorneys will not hesitate to take your case to trial if needed, most cases still settle outside of court. We file an auto insurance claim based on the at-fault driver’s liability policy, present our evidence, and demand a fair settlement. In many cases, this leads to negotiations, and we reach an agreement that compensates our client appropriately.

Occasionally, though, we must sue and take the case to trial. If this is necessary in your case, Texas Civil Practice and Remedies Code § 16.003 gives us up to two years to take this action in most cases. While this may sound like a long time, it takes months to develop a case and get started. For this reason, we encourage you to act quickly after your injuries are stable.
