While drivers in Florida have a responsibility to operate their vehicles in a safe manner, Florida is no stranger to distracted or dangerous drivers. These pose a serious threat to bicyclists trying to cross the road or otherwise utilize our streets. In 2016 alone, there were over 6,500 injuries to bicycle-involved accidents – with 140 fatalities. Some of the more frequent reasons for bicycle-involved crashes include:
Bicycle-involved injuries can often be serious and range from broken bones to brain damage, and even death. For a bicyclist who has been injured, their world can change in an instant. With serious injury and increasing medical bills, it can often be difficult to keep up with everything. Questions about the payment of medical bills or future medical care are often at the forefront of injury victims’ minds.

Statute of Limitations
The statute of limitations for a bicycle accident case is 4 years in Florida. In some extremely rare instances, this timeline could be changed though. However, it is best to assume that the timeline cannot be changed. What this statute of limitations means is that a case can not be brought about more than 4 years from the date of the accident. While this may sound like a long time in reality it is not. There are a number of different documents that will need to be arranged along with other paperwork. Appointments will need to be made with various entities and other parties to ensure the proper paperwork is going through the proper channels. Evidence will need to be established as credible and a strong case will need to be built. This is why it is advised to start sooner rather than later with a bicycle accident case. Long stretches of time could go by while waiting for certain documents to be accepted or other items during a case.
