Common Dangers in Crashes Involving Bicycles and Cars
Bicyclists have little physical protection when they come into contact with a motor vehicle. They do not have seat belts, airbags, or an enclosed frame to absorb force.
A rider may be thrown onto the pavement, a vehicle, or a nearby object. The head, face, chest, spine, arms, and legs can all be affected, even when traffic is moving at a relatively low speed.
Travel speed, visibility, road design, helmet use, and contact angle can influence injury severity. Medical evaluations may reveal fractures, concussions, or internal trauma that is not immediately apparent.
