Motorcycle or Bicycle or Pedestrian Accidents

Pittsburgh Bicycle Accident & Pedestrian Injury Lawyers 

Statistically approximately 10% of all traffic deaths involve pedestrians or bicyclists who are struck by cars or other motor vehicles.  A greater percentage of people involved in these bike and pedestrian accidents sustain life altering injuries.  The attorneys at Ronald Bua & Associates are dedicated to helping individuals who have suffered injuries as well as families who have lost a loved one as the result of an accident in Pennsylvania.

While pedestrians, joggers and cyclists are sometimes partially at fault for failing to use the crosswalk, bicycle and pedestrian injuries are often largely the result of some form of negligence by a driver.  Obviously drivers are driving a vehicle which is much larger, heavier and more dangerous to the pedestrians and cyclists. If you've been injured, contact our Pittsburgh injury law firm today.

There are many accidents involving a pedestrian, jogger or cyclist or other individual who is involved in a hit and run accident.  Without knowledge of the driver, there is insufficient information to file a claim against a hit and run driver’s insurance policy.  Fortunately, the uninsured motorist coverage in your own policy provides coverage for these types of situations as well as accidents in which the at fault driver did not carry any insurance coverage.

Pedestrians and cyclists have zero protection when struck by a vehicle.  Medical bills add up much quicker and higher than vehicle only crashes.  Cyclists and pedestrians are at risk for far more serious injuries when careless drivers collide with them.  They incur uninvaded and massive medical bills.  Our injury law firm can help you get your bills paid as well as compensation for the immense pain and suffering.  It is extremely important that you have a complete investigation from a qualified expert to establish your accident case.  Between weather conditions, road conditions, visibility, equipment and vehicle involvement, pedestrian and bike accidents are usually quite complicated.  Police reports don’t relate all the facts and tend to over simplify the case.  We have the proper investigators to take photos of the bike crash scene and we also have the ability to get experts to assist in the reconstruction of the bike and pedestrian accident and testify to the liability of the driver in your case.  Pedestrian and cycling accidents are significantly different in terms of how the law applies compared to normal car accidents.

Pedestrian and bicycle injuries and vitalities are often caused by the carelessness of the driver.  When these accidents occur, particularly if alcohol or drugs are involved, it is crucial to have an experienced lawyer on your side.
