Los ciclistas pueden sufrir lesiones graves si son golpeados por un coche o camión o si caen de alguna manera. Si eso ocurre, es en el mejor interés del ciclista ponerse en contacto de inmediato con un abogado de accidentes de bicicleta en Stuart para programar una reunión con un abogado experto que pueda trabajar para lograr la máxima compensación por gastos médicos y otros gastos incurridos.
Los ciclistas solo pueden recuperar el valor total de sus pérdidas en casos de lesiones personales si no comparten ninguna culpa en el accidente, por lo que deben basarse en fundamentos legales sólidos.
No es raro ver a un ciclista circulando por el lado incorrecto de la calle enfrentando el tráfico que se aproxima. Eso va en contra de la ley de Florida y es probable que el ciclista no reciba la compensación total si es atropellado por un coche o camión. La razón de ello es la ley de negligencia de Florida. Dichas leyes pueden explicarse mejor mediante un abogado de lesiones personales de Stuart.
Negligencia y ciclistas
Florida ha adoptado el estándar de negligencia comparativa modificada, que reduce la compensación en función del porcentaje de culpa en la causa del accidente de bicicleta, hasta un 50%. Si se determina que tienen un 51 % o más de culpa en el accidente, quedan completamente impedidos de recuperar daños.
Por ejemplo, un ciclista que va por el lado incorrecto de la calle es atropellado por un coche que gira a la derecha. Ambos comparten un porcentaje de culpa, pero el ciclista está en violación de la ley y el conductor, que no busca ciclistas, también tiene culpa. En ese caso, el ciclista puede soportar un porcentaje mayor de culpa. Bajo la ley, una parte que tenga el 70 por ciento de culpa quedará impedida de recuperar por completo.
Si el ciclista estaba en el lado correcto de la calle y fue golpeado por un coche que gira a la derecha, podría cobrar el 100 por ciento de los daños otorgados. Dichos daños pueden perseguirse mejor mediante un abogado de accidentes de bicicleta de Stuart.
Las lesiones por accidente de bicicleta pueden ir desde contusiones hasta lesiones catastróficas.
Determinación de la responsabilidad
La negligencia tiene cuatro elementos y cada uno de ellos debe probarse para poder reclamar daños. Estos elementos son:
- Deber de cuidado: Todo el mundo tiene la obligación legal de no causar daño a otra persona
- Incumplimiento: Un acto que cause daño se define como un incumplimiento del deber de cuidado
- Causalidad: El acto incumplido causó una lesión o daño a la propiedad. La ley también permite la causalidad aproximada, que es una lesión o daño imprevisto relacionado con el acto incumplido
- Daños: El acto incumplido causó una lesión real o daño
En algunos casos, se puede defender la negligencia comparativa, como demostrar que el demandado no tenía un deber legal de cuidado hacia el demandante. Una persona puede determinar la responsabilidad mediante el uso de un abogado de accidentes de bicicleta de Stuart.
Reglas de la carretera
Los ciclistas deben seguir las mismas normas que los conductores de vehículos motorizados, pero los Estatutos de la Bicicleta de Florida (Título XXIII, Capítulo 316.2065) son específicos para los ciclistas, e incluyen:
- Los ciclistas en calles de un solo sentido deben permanecer cerca del borde izquierdo
- Una bicicleta de asiento único, solo un ocupante, excepto que los ocupantes pueden sujetar de forma segura una mochila, bandolera o remolque al transportar a un niño menor de 4 años o que pese menos de 40 libras
- Los ciclistas de 16 años o menos deben usar cascos que cumplan con las normas federales de seguridad
- Circular dos en paralelo es ilegal, excepto en carriles para bicicletas
- Circular por la acera es legal, pero los ciclistas deben ceder el paso a los peatones y avisar audiblemente a los peatones cuando vayan a adelantarles
- Los guardias de cruce escolar pueden emitir infracciones a los ciclistas
Contactar a un Abogado
Si usted o un ser querido se ve involucrado en un accidente de bicicleta, puede saber cuán sólido es su caso contactando a un abogado de accidentes de bicicleta de Stuart. Un abogado puede explicar los diversos aspectos de la ley aplicable y ofrecer las opciones que están disponibles para usted.
Su abogado de accidentes de bicicleta en Stuart puede realizar una investigación independiente del accidente y preparar su caso para el juicio, si es necesario. Muchas demandas por lesiones personales que reclaman daños se resuelven fuera de los tribunales entre usted y la parte negligente.
En esa situación, su abogado dedicado puede negociar con la aseguradora para obtener la compensación a la que tiene derecho.

I had an amazing experience with this law office after my daughter’s accident. They handled everything with so much care and professionalism. I especially want to highlight Samantha J., the paralegal who helped us every step of the way. She was patient, kind, and always quick to answer any questions I had. Her communication and support made a stressful situation so much easier. I’m truly grateful for everything she did for our family.

Samantha Juerakahn and the team at Kogan & DiSalvo are absolute bulldogs. Samantha is extremely responsive, razor-sharp with details, and relentless in driving the case forward. When the opposition plays hardball, they push back harder and never back down. If you want a legal team that fights aggressively and gets results, this is it.
