According to the New York State Department of Transportation (DOT), motorists have a duty to exercise extra care when driving near bicyclists, pedestrians, and others who lack the protection of a motor vehicle. To this end, if a collision does occur, the victim may pursue compensation for their injuries based on the motorist’s insurance policies, which could include:
According to the New York State Department of Financial Services (DFS), New York requires all drivers to carry no-fault insurance coverage that pays out to cover the basic losses often experienced in a collision, such as medical bills up to the policy limit and a percentage of their lost wages. This policy covers the policyholder after a collision, as well as others in their vehicle and pedestrians or bicyclists injured in a crash with them.
When the cyclist suffers severe injuries, they may be able to pursue compensation against the at-fault driver, known as a bodily injury case. This claim is pursued against the driver’s auto liability insurance policy. The recoverable damages in a bodily injury case cover many types of tangible and intangible losses, including:
While a bicycle accident lawyer serving Oyster Bay from Rosenberg & Gluck, L.L.P. may be able to reach a settlement with the driver’s insurance company to compensate you for the expenses and losses we document to support your claim, sometimes it may be necessary to take your case to trial.

Under New York Civil Practice Law & Rules (CVP) §214, bicycle collision victims who qualify generally have three years to file a lawsuit against the at-fault driver. However, this deadline does not apply to all cases. For some injured victims, certain circumstances could extend how long you have to take action or shorten it dramatically. For example, suing a municipality or bringing a wrongful death claim will shorten that deadline.
