Fatal Bicycle Accidents in New Jersey
Bicycling is a popular and eco-friendly way to travel in New Jersey, but it comes with real risks. Each year, the state reports dozens of fatal bicycle crashes, often on busy highways and intersections where cyclists ride close to fast-moving traffic. Many of these deadly crashes occur at night or during heavy traffic when visibility is low and drivers have less time to react.
Many of these tragic crashes stem from preventable causes. Speeding, distracted driving, and failure to yield are among the leading factors behind fatal bicycle accidents. In some cases, poor lighting or road design also contributes to the danger.
For families who lose a loved one in a bicycle accident, the emotional and financial consequences can be devastating. Funeral expenses, medical bills, and lost income often add to the pain of an already overwhelming situation.
When a driver’s negligence leads to a fatal crash, surviving family members may be entitled to pursue a wrongful death claim. A brave wrongful death lawyer can help you seek compensation for funeral costs, loss of financial support, and emotional suffering.
