BICYCLE ACCIDENTS

Bicycle Accidents

You were hit by a car while riding your bicycle somewhere in Washington, DC, Northern Virginia, or the Maryland suburbs. You went up onto the hood of the car, or into the windshield, or went over the top of your handlebars, or wiped out and skid across the pavement. Maybe you ended up with a broken collarbone, or a concussion, or some of the worst road rash ever. You’ve missed work because you can barely walk.

Now what?

You are getting calls from the driver’s insurance company asking you lots of questions. You know you need to follow up and get a copy of the police report. You went to the emergency room and vaguely remember being given the name of a referral to follow up with.

Your head is spinning with questions about what you should do.
