What You Need to Know About Bicycle Accidents in Massachusetts
Massachusetts law treats cyclists as lawful road users, but drivers don’t always respect that right. Common causes of bicycle accidents include distracted driving, failure to yield, dooring incidents, and unsafe passing.
If you’ve been hit, you may be eligible to file a personal injury claim against the at-fault driver. You typically have three years from the date of the accident to take legal action—but acting early gives you the best chance to gather evidence and protect your claim.
