Bicycle Safety and the Risks of Vehicle Collisions
Cyclists are among the most vulnerable road users, especially in areas where bike lanes and pedestrian infrastructure may be limited. Roads like E Center St in Ivins serve both vehicle and cyclist traffic, increasing the risk of collisions when drivers fail to yield or do not see an approaching bicyclist.
Common causes of vehicle vs. bicycle crashes include distracted driving, right-of-way violations, and reduced visibility. Even at low speeds, accidents involving cyclists can lead to severe injuries such as broken bones, concussions, and internal trauma due to the lack of physical protection.
For injured bicyclists, recovery can be challenging, involving medical treatment, rehabilitation, and financial burdens from medical expenses and lost wages. Understanding legal options and seeking professional guidance can help victims navigate insurance claims and explore compensation options.
