Dangerous Driving Behaviors That Put Cyclists at Risk
Florida’s warm weather and year-round sunshine make it one of the most popular states for cycling—but also one of the most dangerous. In 2024, there were over 9,000 bicycle crashes in Florida, with over 200 deaths. When drivers fail to share the road safely, cyclists are often the ones who suffer the most.
Our law firm partners investigate bicycle crashes across Florida and often find that negligence played a significant role. Some of the most common causes of bicycle accidents include:
- Distracted driving, such as texting or using a phone behind the wheel
- Speeding or reckless driving in residential or high-traffic areas
- Failure to yield when turning or merging
- Opening car doors into a cyclist’s path (“dooring”)
- Driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs
- Unsafe lane changes or passing too closely
- Poorly maintained roads or bike lanes
No matter the cause, if someone’s carelessness led to your injuries, a Florida bicycle accident attorney can help you pursue justice and financial recovery.

Frequently Asked Questions
Your safety comes first. Call 911 to report the crash and get medical attention, even if your injuries seem minor. If possible, take photos of the scene, your bicycle, and any visible injuries, and collect contact information from witnesses. Then, reach out to The Goldwater Law Firm. We can put you in touch with a firm that can review your case and guide you on your next steps.
In most cases, you have two years from the date of your accident to file a personal injury lawsuit in Florida. However, certain factors can shorten this deadline. If you miss this statute of limitations, you could lose your chance to seek damages, no matter how strong your claim is. The sooner you reach out to our team, the sooner we can get you matched with one of our partner firms.
There are no upfront costs associated with working with our law firm partners. The attorneys we work with operate on a contingency fee basis, meaning they only get paid if they win your case. You can get high-quality legal representation without worrying about hourly fees or retainers.
Florida follows a modified comparative negligence rule, which means you can still recover compensation even if you were partly at fault, although state law caps the percentage of fault. Your total award may be reduced based on your percentage of fault. A Florida bicycle accident attorney can evaluate your situation, determine how fault might impact your case, and fight for the maximum recovery available.
