As Bicycle Accident Lawyers We Will Use an Accident Reconstruction Expert To Reconstruct Your Bicycle Case
Oftentimes, if the injury is significant enough and there is a negative
police report or no witnesses, as Bicycle Accident Lawyers we will hire
an accident reconstruction expert who will reconstruct the bicycle
accident. Unfortunately, in dealing with bicyclists, we have discovered
all too often the insensitivity and bias of the police to cyclists when
they prepare their report and make their conclusions. In a bicycle or
bike accident they will often take the word, even though self-serving,
of the driver against the bicyclist, without investigating any further.
Oftentimes, they never ask the cyclist for their version of what
happened. They will just believe the motorist. Too often, bicyclists are
hit and do nothing about it because they either do not understand their
rights or do not believe they have a case. Sadly, many drivers believe
that they are superior to a cyclist and that they have no obligation to
the cyclist.
When we need to know the facts of an accident or they’re in dispute, as
California Bicycle Accident Lawyers we need to reconstruct what actually
happened. Oftentimes, our accident reconstructionists will take a photo
from the exact location that the police photographer took his. By
duplicating the exact spot, we can show the alignment of trees and posts
in the background and reduplicate the maneuver between the cyclist and
car or truck and photograph the entire event. Our experts will take
measurements at the location or the intersection and construct a map
which will indicate all of the salient locations including the police
photographer’s location, the position of the autos, and the bicyclist
before and after the accident. We can do this for any type of bicycle
accident scenario. We will reconstruct the path of the bicycle from the
physical evidence and any witness reports. This is what a specialized
bicycle accident injury law firm, bicycle injury attorney, bicycle
accident lawyer will do for their client.
Our bicycle experts will create photos, diagrams, and proper
measurements so that we can reconstruct the accident and show that the
police diagram or police report is not based on a complete set of
measurements and does not accurately reflect what occurred.
From the above, we can then make an independent conclusion to establish
what actually happened and it was not the way the police concluded what
happened.

accident specialists. Do not wait. You may be losing important facts,
evidence or witnesses.
