It’s a split second of distraction for a car driver who forgets you are there. This is a typical story: Person finds bicycle and body the next morning. https://www.tampabay.com/news/breaking-news/2021/09/16/bicyclist-killed-in-ruskin-hit-and-run-driver-sought-hillsborough-officials-say/ Every week I see a bicycle driver driving against the traffic either in a “bicycle lane” (either real or imagined) or just on the right side […]
From looking at television and billboards, listening to radio commercials and reading refrigerator magnets which arrive on a new phone book, you’d think personal injury (“accident“) lawyers are supposed to smile and pose for the camera outside fake courtrooms giving press conferences that never happened.
