Bicycling is more than a past time or form of exercise – it is a passion, lifestyle, and great form of transportation. Like motor vehicles, bicyclists have rights and privileges designed to provide them with safe access and use of Utah’s roadways. Unlike motor vehicles, however, bicyclists have minimal protection beyond their helmet. As a result, when a bicyclist is injured due to an unsafe road condition or more frequently, a distracted or negligent driver, the bicyclist’s injuries can be catastrophic and even fatal.

Common physical injuries from a bike accident range from contusions, abrasions, lacerations, road rash, strains, fractures, ruptured organs, hernias, traumatic brain injuries, cranial hemorrhage, and concussions. Associated with these physical injuries is often pain and suffering, loss of income or wages, and a loss of enjoyment of life as the sustained injuries may prevent the injured bicyclist from doing the activities he or she used to enjoy doing. Unfortunately, despite the popularity of bicycling in the State of Utah and the number of bicyclists on Utah roadways, hundreds of bike accidents occur every year.
