Colorado Bicycle Accidents
On average, Colorado sees around 1,000 injuries each year due to bicycle accidents, with several fatalities adding to the tragic toll. Bicycle accidents often result in more severe injuries compared to other types of traffic collisions, largely because cyclists lack the protection afforded to occupants of larger, faster vehicles. As some of the most vulnerable individuals on the road, cyclists require heightened awareness and caution from all drivers, particularly when sharing the road.
Drivers should always make eye contact with cyclists, especially when their paths may intersect. Failing to do so can lead to devastating consequences, including collisions that may cause serious injuries or even death. In 2022, over 100 people lost their lives in bicycle accidents in Colorado, highlighting the risks cyclists face daily on the road.
Bicycle accident victims often need urgent medical care, which can be costly, and the recovery period can lead to lost wages if they’re unable to work. This financial strain adds to the physical and emotional stress already caused by the injury.
