Cyclist Rights After an Accident in Tennessee

Bicyclists in Tennessee have the same right to use public roadways as motor vehicles, but crashes involving cyclists often result in serious injury because riders have little protection compared to a vehicle occupant. Common causes include drivers failing to check for cyclists before turning or opening a car door, unsafe passing distances, and poor road conditions. Because a driver's insurance company may attempt to argue the cyclist was partially at fault, thorough documentation of the scene, traffic signals, and right-of-way is important to a successful claim.

Those searching for a bicycle accident lawyer near me often also use the terms bike accident attorney or cyclist injury lawyer, which describe the same type of claim. The best bicycle accident attorney will understand local bike lane and right-of-way laws. Most offer free consultations to evaluate your case at no upfront cost.
