According to the FLHSMV, bicyclists have the same rights and privileges as motor vehicle operators. This means drivers must share the road with cyclists and obey the same traffic laws as they would when interacting with any other motorist.

- Following or passing a bicycle too closely
- Failing to yield the right of way to a bicyclist
- Failing to stop at a marked intersection
- Speeding
- Crowding a designated bicycle lane
- Driving under the influence of drugs or alcohol
We can collect physical evidence, obtain medical records, police reports, and other documentation, and gather eyewitness and expert testimony to support your case. If another party hurts you, we can fight to make sure they pay what is owed.
