Quick Florida Answer

Bicycle crashes with motor vehicles often cause serious orthopedic, head, or road-rash injuries. Florida law treats cyclists as vulnerable road users entitled to the same duties of care as other traffic—claims typically require proving a driver’s negligence, preserving scene evidence, and coordinating PIP or health coverage with any bodily injury or UM claim.
