Frequently Asked Questions
How can cyclists stay safer in traffic?
Riding with the flow of traffic, using marked bike lanes where available, wearing bright or reflective clothing and using lights at dusk or night can help drivers see cyclists sooner, especially near intersections.
What should a cyclist do after a crash with a car?
Call 911, stay as still as possible if injured, and wait for police to arrive and document the scene. Getting checked by medical personnel is recommended even if injuries seem minor at first.
Do cyclists have the same road rights as drivers?
In Florida and most states, cyclists generally have the same rights and responsibilities as drivers, including the right to use travel lanes and the duty to obey traffic signals.
Are bicycle accidents more common at intersections?
Intersections are common sites for vehicle-bicycle crashes because they involve turning movements, crossing traffic and limited visibility, all of which increase the chance of a driver and cyclist failing to see each other in time.
