If you do get into an accident it’s important to follow these steps to make sure you’re taken care of and the person in the wrong is punished.

Attend to your medical needs first and foremost. It is more important to take care of injuries than anything else.

Call 911 so you can report an accident and get an ambulance if necessary.

Get all the information from the driver of your car and any information that witnesses around the accident might have.

Take pictures of the accident including your bicycle, the car, the intersection, and surrounding area. This can help if you need to go to trial.

As soon as you can, get legal advice from a lawyer who understands bicycle laws and will make sure your rights are protected.
