How Do Georgia Bicycle Laws Affect Your Injury Claim?
Georgia treats bicycles as vehicles. This means riders have the same rights and duties as drivers. Some of the most important rules under O.C.G.A. §40-6 include:
- Drivers must maintain at least three feet of distance when passing a cyclist.
- Cyclists must ride as far to the right as possible.
- Bicycle riders under age 16 must wear a helmet.
- Cyclists may use the full lane if it is too narrow to share safely.
- Atlanta prohibits adults from riding on sidewalks.
These rules directly impact how our bicycle injury attorneys prove liability for bicycle accident injuries. At our bike accident injury law firm, we analyze every detail of the motor vehicle accident report to build a case for maximum compensation.
The Common Causes Of Atlanta Bicycle Accidents
The heavy traffic and limited infrastructure of Atlanta roadways often contribute to bike accidents. Some of the most common causes of collisions in Atlanta include:
- Drivers opening doors onto cyclists on stretches such as Peachtree Street.
- Cars failing to yield during left turns onto Ponce De Leon Avenue.
- Motorists crowding cyclists in narrow lanes near the BeltLine entrances.
- Vehicles blocking designated bike lanes in Midtown or Downtown.
These bicycle accidents often leave bike accident victims with life-altering trauma. Our lawyers have the grit needed to fight for your future.
