Cycling in Albuquerque - Know Your Rights

Albuquerque has a growing cycling community, from the Paseo del Bosque Trail to city bike lanes and commuter routes. But sharing the road with cars comes with risks. Drivers who fail to yield, check their blind spots, or pay attention can cause life-changing injuries. We make sure your rights as a cyclist are respected and that careless drivers face consequences.

Common Bicycle Accident Causes

We've handled bike accident claims caused by:

A black check mark inside a black circle, confirming an action.

No matter how it happened, we investigate thoroughly to identify every liable party.

Bike vs. Car - Serious Consequences

When a car collides with a bicycle, the cyclist almost always suffers the worst of it. Even with a helmet, riders can experience:

A black check mark inside a black circle, indicating "approved" or "completed."
Check mark symbol in a circle.
Check mark inside a circle, indicating approval or completion.

We help ensure the damage to your bike, gear, and health is fully documented to strengthen your claim.

New Mexico Bike Laws

Under New Mexico law, bicycles have the right to share the road and must obey traffic rules. While helmets are not required for adults, wearing one can help reduce injury severity. Not wearing a helmet doesn't automatically prevent you from recovering damages, though insurers may try to use it against you-something we know how to counter.

Insurance Issues in Bike Accidents

If you were hit by a car, your claim is typically made against the driver's auto insurance. If the driver fled or lacked coverage, your own uninsured/underinsured motorist coverage may apply-even though you were on a bike. Many cyclists don't realize this, but we can guide you through the process.
