Why Pedestrian and Bicycle Accidents Are So Dangerous
Unlike drivers and passengers protected by vehicles, pedestrians and cyclists are exposed. When collisions happen, the results are often devastating.
In Miami, pedestrian and cyclist accidents are particularly common in:
- Downtown Miami
- Brickell
- Little Havana
- Miami Beach and South Beach
- Wynwood and Design District
- Near Metrorail and bus stops
- Around schools and parks
High-speed traffic, distracted drivers, and congested roadways contribute to the danger every day.

Common Causes of Pedestrian and Bicycle Accidents
Most pedestrian and bicycle accidents occur due to negligent driving, including:
- Failure to yield at crosswalks
- Distracted driving (cell phone use, GPS navigation)
- Speeding through intersections and neighborhoods
- Running red lights or stop signs
- Driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs
- Making unsafe turns without checking for foot or bike traffic
- Aggressive driving or crowding cyclists off the road
Our investigations identify the cause — and build a strong case against those responsible.
Common Injuries in Pedestrian and Bicycle Accidents
Because of the lack of protection, these accidents often cause catastrophic injuries such as:
- Traumatic brain injuries (TBI)
- Spinal cord injuries and paralysis
- Fractures and broken bones
- Internal bleeding and organ damage
- Road rash and serious skin abrasions
- Facial injuries and dental trauma
- Amputations
