With scenic byways and miles of open road, Houston is one of the most popular cities for bicycling in the country. Unfortunately, with a lack of safe bicycling infrastructure, Houston can also be a dangerous city for bicyclists. Hundreds of bicycle accidents are reported each year, and bicycle deaths are currently outpacing last year’s numbers. While the city has made some improvements to bike lanes with its Houston Bike Plan, bicyclists still have to use extreme caution when navigating Houston’s disconnected bike routes. Danger could be lurking around every corner.

If so, you may need an experienced attorney to help you seek compensation.
