Bicycle and Pedestrian Accident Injuries

Seattle-Area Bike and Pedestrian Accidents

General Form

Bicycle and pedestrian accidents are common in the northwest Washington region. Many people walk or ride bikes as their primary means of transportation. Unlike car drivers, joggers, walkers, and bikers are not protected by the structure of an automobile. They are very vulnerable in an accident, with serious injuries and fatalities a common result.
