COMMON CAUSES OF WASHINGTON, PA BICYCLE ACCIDENTS

Though Washington, PA, is a beautiful city, biking to work or school can be very dangerous. Drivers are expected to watch for bicyclists and share the road. Bike riders are notoriously harder to see on the road, so motorists must keep a close eye on their surroundings.

The most common causes for bicycle collisions involve;

• Intersections are responsible for the majority of traffic accidents involving bike riders
• Speeding and reckless driving
• Following or passing too close to a bike rider
• Distracted driving, usually involving texting or phone calls
• Merging lanes without looking for a bicyclist
• Failure to notice or ignoring bike riders
• Changing lanes without signaling
• Blind spots on the road, at turns, in parking lots, and driveways
