Question:
Do I have a claim if injured by hitting a pothole on a bike?
Answer:
Central Florida is known for many things. Florida is home to millions of cyclists. In fact, we lead the nation in bicycle clubs and that’s partially due to our fantastic weather. It’s also partly due to our many trails, our bike friendly laws. There is a disproportionate amount of injuries to cyclists in Florida compared to the rest of the nation. Now, all of those injuries don’t necessarily involve vehicle and bicycle collisions. Many cyclists in Florida are injured because of the other thing that central Florida has a lot of, which is construction. Our roads are constantly under construction because of the explosion in our population, both people moving in and just the expansion of toll roads, highways, the explosion of dense population centers, cities like Orlando, Tampa, Miami, Jacksonville, the panhandle, Brevard County, Broward County. Florida is just growing and there’s construction everywhere. Many, many times, cyclists are injured because of a pothole, an unfinished road, a bad detour, damaged sidewalks, incomplete projects. If you are a cyclist who’s been injured by any one of these types of circumstances, please do not hesitate to call the Victory law firm.
