Frequently Asked Questions
What usually causes crashes between cars and bicycles?
Many involve a driver failing to see a cyclist at an intersection or while turning, misjudging following distance, or a cyclist riding outside a visible path of travel. Limited visibility and driver inattention are common factors.
Where do most car-bicycle collisions happen?
They frequently occur at intersections or driveways, where a turning or crossing vehicle crosses a cyclist's path, rather than on open stretches of road.
What is "dooring" and why is it dangerous?
Dooring happens when someone in a parked vehicle opens a door into the path of an oncoming cyclist, who may have little time or room to avoid it. It is a frequent cause of injury in areas with curbside parking.
How can cyclists stay safer in traffic?
Riding predictably, using lights and reflective gear, making eye contact with drivers at intersections, and avoiding blind spots near trucks and turning vehicles can all help reduce risk.
