Two Bicycle Accidents in Carroll County in the Month of July

Date: July 28, 2010
Location: Carroll County, Georgia
Event: Bicycle Accidents | Douglasville Bicycle Accident Attorney

Two recent bicycle accidents in Carroll County have led some residents to believe that bicycle lanes might help cyclists from being injured.

In a hit and run accident, one cyclist is recovering from a separated shoulder after being hit by a pickup truck. The injured cyclist knew he was hit by a pickup but could not identify the driver or his truck with any further details. Another cyclist who was recently injured was able to identify the driver that hit him. The driver was charged with aggravated assault and criminal damage to property.

It was reported that neither of the injured cyclists believes that designated bike lanes would have prevented their accidents. But many local Carroll County residents believe the creation of bike lanes would help prevent serious injuries such as these.
