Common crash causes include drivers turning across a cyclist's path, opening doors into bike lanes, passing too closely, and failing to yield at intersections.A Cyclist's Rights Under New Hampshire Law
Cyclists have the right to use New Hampshire roadways, and drivers must exercise reasonable care around them. When a driver's negligence causes a crash, the cyclist may recover for injuries just as any other accident victim would. Because cyclists are unprotected, injuries are often severe — fractures, head trauma, and road rash are common.Pursuing Full Compensation
Compensation can include medical bills, lost income, bicycle damage, future care, and pain and suffering. As with motorcycle cases, attorneys must sometimes counter bias against cyclists with clear evidence of the driver's fault. Prompt investigation preserves that evidence.Common Questions
