By design, bicycles, cars, trucks, motorcycles and pedestrians are supposed to share the road in a respectful manner. Unfortunately, this isn't always the case, and bicycle riders often bear the brunt in the form of serious injuries.
Many motorists subconsciously fail to notice bicyclists, motorcyclists, and pedestrians, because they are "vertical cues," and the negligent motorist is focusing on, and looking for, "horizontal cues" (other vehicles) only, and simply not paying attention to anything else. If a motorist claims they never saw you, or that you "came out of nowhere," and you were struck by a vehicle while riding your bicycle, an experienced Los Angeles bicycle accident attorney can help you get the compensation you deserve.
