Frequently Asked Questions
Where do most car-bicycle collisions happen?
Many happen at intersections, where a turning or crossing vehicle fails to see a cyclist in time, or along roadways where bikes and cars share a lane with little separation.
What is "dooring" and why is it dangerous?
Dooring happens when someone in a parked car opens a door into the path of an oncoming cyclist, often giving the rider no time to stop or swerve safely.
How can cyclists stay safer in traffic?
Riding predictably, using lights and reflective gear after dark, making eye contact with drivers at intersections, and staying out of a vehicle's blind spots can all help cyclists stay visible.
What to Do After a Bicycle Crash in Hebron, Maryland
If you're involved in a crash while riding, try to move to a safe spot off the roadway if you're able, and call for help right away. Adrenaline can mask pain, so it's worth getting a medical evaluation even if you feel okay at first, since some injuries show up hours or days later. Keep a record of what happened while it's fresh, note the vehicle and any witnesses, and request a copy of the police report once it's available. Giving yourself time to rest and follow up with a doctor matters as much as the immediate response at the scene.
