With gas prices rising, we will likely see more bike and moped injury accidents. I have read recently in Paris that bicycle crashes are up 7% compared with a 24% increase in biker use. Its likely that as bike use increases more space will also be given to bikers by transportation officials as bikes start chipping away at the car and automobile hard drive and infrastructure.

Serious bodily injury may occur when a car driver opens a car door and strikes a bicyclist. With any car bike crash accident in Oregon or Washington the car driver will (in most cases) be liable for injury done to the bike rider who passes by and gets struck by the car door.
The bicyclist who runs into the open door could possibly be thrown to the pavement. The usual and expected injury to a bike rider being thrown onto the road include contusions, possible broken arm and leg, as well as neck and back strain. Head injury and brain damage is common place with bike car crashes.
Since most bicyclists in Oregon and Washington don’t have PIP or medical on their bike, the at fault car insurance carrier will process medical bills through the at fault car’s pip policy.
