Don’t Become A Victim; The Law Offices Of Darren T Moore’s Bike Accident Attorneys Are Here To Help You

The number of cyclists who have died on city streets and roadways in 2019 is more than double and coming close to triple the number of cyclists killed in all of 2018. 10 cyclists were killed in 2018 and to date, 28 bicyclists or e-bike riders have been killed after being struck by vehicles and trucks on New York streets and roadways.

On Sunday November 17, 2019; a 25-year-old cyclist was the 28th person killed on our roads when a dump truck made an illegal U-turn in a supposed attempt to get onto the Willis Avenue bridge from a service road.

The New York Police Department writes over 1,000,000 moving violations on average every year which means that pedestrians and bicyclists are at a serious risk each and every day on the streets and roadways.

Too often, car and truck drivers are too careless, lazy or too distracted to notice the everyday bicyclist in the nearby bike lane. Whether it’s a truck driver double parked who opens the door into a bike lane, a motorist making a left turn at an intersection without checking their mirror’s or big trucks simply hogging the travel lanes, bicyclists have to be extra vigilant. In an era where more commuters are being encouraged to take the cleaner and healthier commute to work and around the city, the authorities and government need to be doing more to protect the bicyclist in New York. On July 25th of this year, Mayor De Blasio announced a $58.4 million five-year plan, called the “Green Wave” with the aim of adding new bike lanes, redesign intersections and step up enforcement of traffic laws. In the Mayor’s own words, cycling in New York City is in a state of “crisis” and “emergency.”
