Frequently Asked Questions
Do cyclists have the same rights to the road as drivers?
Yes. In California, bicyclists are generally entitled to the same rights and subject to the same rules as motor vehicle drivers, including the right to use travel lanes.
Are bicycle crashes more likely to happen at intersections?
Intersections are a common site for vehicle-bicycle collisions because they involve turning movements, crossing traffic and limited visibility between drivers and riders.
What injuries are common in vehicle-bicycle collisions?
Cyclists involved in crashes with vehicles frequently suffer head, limb and soft-tissue injuries, since they have little protection compared to someone inside a car.
What typically causes these kinds of collisions?
Common factors include a driver failing to see a cyclist, turning movements at intersections, and reduced visibility, though the specific cause of any crash is determined by investigators.
