California Bicycle Laws
Bicycle Lane Rights
California law requires drivers to give cyclists at least three feet of clearance when passing. Violations of this law can establish negligence in a personal injury claim.
Helmet Requirements
Riders under 18 are required to wear helmets in California. For adult riders, helmet use may be raised by the defense, but it does not bar recovery. We address this directly in building your case.
Electric Bike Accidents
E-bike use has surged across San Diego and Southern California. We handle accidents involving all types of bicycles, including electric bikes and cargo bikes.
