Bicyclists are particularly vulnerable to car accidents because there is little to protect them from other vehicles. This is why drivers should exercise even greater caution when driving next to a bicyclist. Arizona law states that a “buffer zone” of at least three feet should be observed when passing bicyclists, and drivers who come too close to bikers could be fined.
A common cause of bicycle accidents is careless behavior, which includes:When drivers fail to exercise their proper duty of care, they compromise the safety of everyone on the road.
