  1. Bicycling is a great way to get around, particularly in cities. When a rider is looking for an efficient and environmentally friendly mode of transportation, they should not have to worry about being struck and injured by another driver.

  2. Bicyclists Are At A High Risk Of Sustaining Injuries In A Collision Bicyclists do not have much protection from the force of a vehicle slamming into their bodies. Even when a cyclist is wearing a helmet, they are at a high risk of sustaining an injury.

  3. How Do Bicycle Accidents Happen In Boston? Boston is a crowded place with plenty of traffic, but drivers must still obey all laws of the roadway. This includes giving bicyclists the space they deserve. In many cases, a bicyclist is severely injured because a driver ignores crosswalks, bicycle lanes, and cyclists in intersections.

  4. Will Not Wearing A Helmet Affect Your Case? Any person over 16 years of age does not have to wear a helmet when they are riding a bicycle in Massachusetts, though it is highly recommended to do so. However, not wearing a helmet will not affect a bicycle accident victim’s ability to recover compensation if another person caused their accident.

  5. How Long Do You Have To File A Boston Bicycle Accident Case? Each state is responsible for setting time limits for how long victims have to file lawsuits against those who caused their injuries. The personal injury statute of limitations in Massachusetts is three years from the date the injury occurred. This means that bicycle accident victims have a three-year window with which to file a lawsuit against an alleged negligent party in their case.

  6. If you or someone you care about has been injured in a Boston bicycle accident caused by another person’s negligent actions, contact a Boston bicycle accident attorney Dino M. Colucci at Colucci Colucci Marcus & Flavin, PC. He is dedicated to helping clients secure the compensation they need.
