It is very important that you get medical attention immediately after a bicycle injury, even if you think your injuries are minor. Those minor injuries could quickly turn into life-threatening injuries if they do not get treated properly. It is also important to involve the police after a bicycle accident and to make note of the officer’s name and badge number and the case number so the accident report can be located easily. If possible, it is also a good idea to get any witnesses’ contact information. Witnesses can give other helpful information such as weather and road conditions or even the behavior of the driver involved in the accident. Do not get your bicycle fixed after an accident. The bike itself is important in helping to prove your case. You should take pictures of your bicycle and keep it stored away until your case has been resolved.

Preparing Evidence

Our Alabama Bicycle Accident Attorneys use experienced investigators to thoroughly inspect the scene of the accident. They will be able to determine and investigate factors such as weather and road conditions and locations of crosswalks contributing to your accident.
