Circunstancias que Rodean un Accidente de Bicicleta en Cherry Hill
Los Accidentes de Bicicleta que involucran vehículos son demasiado comunes, a pesar de los esfuerzos legislativos para que los conductores estén más conscientes de la seguridad de los ciclistas en la carretera, y de sanciones estrictas para los conductores que lesionan de manera imprudente.
El Centro de Información para Peatones y Bicicletas, un grupo de investigación financiado por la Administración Federal de Carreteras, informa sobre 45,000 accidentes de bicicletas cada año, así como aproximadamente 800 accidentes que resultan en muertes de ciclistas.
Las muertes de ciclistas ha aumentado en la última década, con una tendencia al alza de entre 6 y 12 por ciento cada año. Los informes de lesiones de ciclistas han disminuido en algunos en los últimos años, pero las investigaciones también muestran que solo el 10 por ciento de todas las lesiones de bicicletas son reportadas.
Causas Comunes de Accidentes de Bicicleta
Algunos de los Accidentes de Bicicleta más comunes que involucran a conductores de vehículos incluyen situaciones en las que:
- Las condiciones del camino o del clima eran inseguras para el uso de bicicletas
- El conductor del auto operó el vehículo imprudentemente
- El ciclista no siguió las pautas de señalización o las vías aplicables
- El conductor estaba acelerando excesivamente o conduciendo peligrosamente por las condiciones de la carretera en ese momento;
- El conductor estaba bajo la influencia de drogas o alcohol
- El conductor se distrajo al enviar mensajes de texto o al usar el correo electrónico o las redes sociales mientras conduce
- El conductor estaba soñoliento o se quedó dormido
Leyes para el Uso Casco y Negligencia en Casos de Lesiones Personales
La Ley en Estado de New Jersey, requiere que los ciclistas que tienen 17 años o menos usen un casco en todo momento mientras manejan una bicicleta, con algunas excepciones. Esto significa que los adultos no están legalmente obligados a usar cascos de bicicleta.
Sin embargo, el hecho de que un ciclista no estuviera usando un casco todavía podría potencialmente usarse contra un demandante para impedir que obtengan una compensación, bajo el argumento de que contribuyeron a sus propias lesiones. Independientemente de si un ciclista llevaba casco o no, un abogado de accidentes de bicicleta en Cherry Hill, le puede ayudar.
Doctrina de Negligencia Comparativa de New Jersey
El Estado de New Jersey opera bajo la llamada Norma de Negligencia Comparativa, donde las víctimas aún pueden recuperar una indemnización de la parte perjudicada, incluso si la víctima contribuyó a sus propias lesiones, siempre que su contribución no fuera responsable del 50 por ciento.
En otras palabras, siempre que una víctima no sea más responsable que la otra parte, aún puede reclamar daños por las lesiones ocasionadas. Esto significa que incluso si un ciclista no usara un casco o tomara otra acción potencialmente negligente, podría recuperar la compensación del conductor del vehículo involucrado.
La Función de un Abogado de Cherry Hill
No importa qué causó su accidente de bicicleta en Cherry Hill, es importante hablar con un abogado de accidentes de bicicleta en Cherry Hill, sobre su caso para examinar las circunstancias que condujeron a su accidente de bicicleta y determinar quién pudo haber sido el culpable bajo la Ley de New Jersey.
Puede ser elegible para recibir una compensación por sus facturas médicas, costos de rehabilitación, salarios perdidos, daños a la propiedad y otras pérdidas que haya sufrido.

Testimonial from Paul D. -
My case settled recently after lasting 4 years. Grungo and Colarulo’s law firm were able to secure a large settlement award for my slip and fall accident. This money will help secure my future for the permanent injury I received as a result of the slip and fall. Everyone was very caring, and kept me informed throughout the entire process. Christine Lafferty is an excellent litigation lawyer. I highly recommend using them if you have been injured or in an accident. I hope I am never in a situation again to need their services, but I know who to go to if I, or any of my family members are ever injured. Thanks Grungo and Colarulo and staff for your compassionate service!

Testimonial from Ahmed A. -
My wife and I reached out to Grungo Colarulo in 2020 for advise on a legal matter. After a meeting with the Attorney and Paralegal, we decided to go forward with a case. This case required a lot of documentation, and expert review of the documentation which was aquired. Throughout the process, we were kept up to date monthly, and Grungo Colarulo was always responsive to any questions that we had. The entire staff at Grungo Colarulo are very professional, caring, and willing to go the extra mile. This firm is a definite recommend!

Testimonial from Aminah M. -
A dear family friend referred us to a young attorney named Rich Grungo, Jr. We wanted answers and if necessary, justice for our father. From day one of a five-year journey, Mr. Rich Grungo, Jr. made our family and our pain his own. The man never stopped working for us. He kept us informed every step of the way. Questions were answered quickly and with great compassion and expertise. Even though Rich was always busy, he was never too busy for us. We always felt like we were his only clients
Testimonial from Mickey -
I had the opportunity to observe Mr. Grungo work in this case, both in the courtroom on the technical matters of the motions and also as his presentation to the jury in opening and presenting witnesses as well as utilizing animations… and drawings and films that were necessary for a proper understanding of the case…At all times during the presentation, Mr. Grungo operated mostly without notes and questioned the witnesses in a conversational manner which made it most effective. **

Hi Rich, Well I’m on my way up to college to finish packing my son’s stuff up and to go to his Graduation tomorrow. It’s hard to believe how fast and how slow, at the same time 5 years can go by. I was just thinking of you as I am getting ready to leave and wanted to thank you once again for everything you have done for my son’s future. You are a good and just man. God Bless to you and your family.
Be Well,
