Police should be contacted to take a report in any bicycle accident however, this is more crucial in an accident which involves serious injury or death. Police will then conduct an investigation as to the cause of the accident, and typically a police report will be available 7 to 10 days after the accident, although, frequently accidents which involve a death may take longer.
With California Bicycle Accident Lawyers we will help you identify the parties responsible for the injuries you have suffered. If there is a defect in the design or any part of
the bicycle which potentially caused the accident, the manufacturer
may be held liable. If the bicycle rider was wearing a helmet protection
and it turns out the helmet was defective, and failed to provide
the protection that as anticipated by the wearer, the manufacturer
and/or the retail merchant may have liability. Additionally, if
a bicycle was recently repaired, it is determined that the repairer
was negligent and failure to exercise proper inspection of bicycle
by the repairer, and that turns out to have caused the accident,
the business that did the repairs may be liable for the accident.
If the accident is caused by a defective part, it is imperative
that you preserve that part and provide it to your attorney to have
it properly inspected by an expert.
