Bicycle Accident Legal Guidance

Summary

If you were hit by a car while riding a bicycle in Texas, you may be entitled to compensation for medical expenses, pain and suffering, and lost wages. Texas law generally allows two years from the date of the accident to file a personal injury lawsuit. The state follows a modified comparative negligence rule, meaning you can still recover damages if you are less than 51% at fault for the accident. Consider contacting a personal injury attorney for specific guidance.
