According to some reports, Texas, Florida, and California are the three most deadly U.S. states for bicyclists.
In 2021, 2,265 bicycle accidents occurred in the State of Texas. According to data published by the Texas Department of Transportation, 90 bicyclists were killed statewide that year. Another 332 cyclists suffered serious injuries. 1,046 bicyclists were fortunate to walk away with only minor injuries.
Dallas is particularly dangerous for cyclists. In the City of Dallas, only 5.3 miles of barrier-protected bike lanes exist. By comparison, Austin has over 50 miles of bike lanes that are protected from vehicle traffic by physical barriers.
All personal injury cases are slightly different. To determine your case value, our lawyers must first examine all of the details.

In a successful personal injury case, the victim can recover compensation to cover all expenses incurred because of the accident and injury. This part of your settlement is your economic damages. You can also seek compensation for your non-economic damages. These are your personal, non-financial losses (such as pain and suffering).
You may be entitled to compensation for:
Some of these damages can be difficult to prove. Insurance companies often take advantage of bicycle accident victims who don’t have the resources to prove the value of intangible losses, such as pain and suffering. That’s where our lawyer in Dallas can help. We often bring in experts and specialists who can offer insight into these and other complex issues that may arise in your case.
Under Texas law, all parties who contribute to an accident can be held financially responsible. Injured parties are no exception. This is called comparative negligence. “Comparative negligence” is a legal concept that divides financial liability between all parties whose negligence contributed to an accident.
Texas follows modified comparative negligence rules. If you’re awarded compensation after an accident, your damages can be reduced to the extent that your own acts contributed to the accident. If you were 20% responsible, you can keep 80% of your settlement or verdict.
However, once your share of fault reaches 51%, you cannot recover any compensation at all. That gives insurance companies an incentive to try to blame you when you file a claim.
If you were hit by a car while cycling, it’s very likely that you suffered serious injuries. Our lawyers handle all types of bike injury cases.

Drivers are required to share the road with bicyclists. Unfortunately, many bike accidents occur because drivers fail to keep a proper lookout for cyclists on the road.
While many different factors can cause a bike accident, some of the most common causes include:
Our Dallas bicycle accident attorney will conduct our own investigation to find out what happened. Once we understand the cause of your accident, we’ll work to identify all parties who can be held financially accountable for your damages.
In order to recover compensation after an accident, you must prove that someone else was responsible for the accident.
You must prove four separate elements, including:
The insurance company will want to see proof before they agree to pay your damages.
That evidence might include:
Evidence tends to be strongest when you can locate it quickly after an accident. Even if you’re still recovering from your injuries, contact our lawyer as soon as you can. We’ll start investigating while you focus your attention on your physical recovery.
Texas has a strict two-year statute of limitations that applies in most personal injury cases. If you fail to file a personal injury lawsuit within two years of the accident, you lose your right to sue for damages.
It’s possible that you could have more or less time to act, depending on the facts of your case. However, one thing is always certain. If you miss the deadline, you forfeit your right to seek compensation for your losses.
