Cycling accidents and the law – essential guidance and myths busted

No one wants to think about being injured in a cycling accident. But it’s critical to know about your legal rights in case it happens to you or someone you know. This informal talk will provide essential guidance, explain away some unhelpful myths about the legal process, and talk you through a couple of real-life case studies.

With almost 16,000 cyclists injured in reported accidents in the UK in 2022 alone, and serious injuries in cycling accidents up by 21% from 2004 to 2022, it’s vital that all cyclists know their rights and what to do in the event of an accident.

A partner with Allan McDougall Solicitors, one of Scotland’s leading personal injury firms, Julie Harris has many years’ experience in successfully handling cycling accident legal cases. Her informative talk will equip you with the knowledge you need should you or someone you know ever be involved in a cycling accident.
