Representing Victims of Life-Altering Bike Accidents in East Tennessee
Bicycling is one of the most popular forms of transportation and recreation in Tennessee, and the number of bicyclists has grown considerably in the past few decades. However, despite the increased marketing that encourages drivers to “share the road,” many motorists are still unaware of bikers and are capable of inflicting catastrophic injuries or death with their vehicles.

Injuries Commonly Caused By Bike Accidents in Morristown
In the past, bike accidents were most common among children and young adults — victims who were hit on residential roads close to their homes. Now, however, the average age of bike crash victims is 43. People who ride their bikes to work, train for road races, or enjoy leisurely rides are forced to watch for drivers who are likely not watching for them.
Sadly, because of the size difference between cars and bikes, and because of the minimal protection bikers have when they are involved in accidents, bikers often suffer serious injuries.
Some of the most common bike accident injuries include:
- Spinal cord injuries
- Traumatic brain injuries
- Broken legs, arms, and shoulders
- Road rash leading to scarring
