Protecting Yourself On and Off the Bike: Insurance Essentials for Cyclists [REPLAY] Ep 101
Coach Chris interviews Thomas Henson, a personal injury attorney specializing in catastrophic injuries and avid cyclist, who shares critical insurance and safety information that can protect cyclists and all active individuals on the roads.
We discuss:
• Uninsured/underinsured motorist coverage (UM/UIM) is vital but often overlooked insurance that protects you beyond just car accidents
• UM/UIM coverage follows you when cycling, running, or even walking, and extends to family members in your household
• North Carolina's minimum required auto insurance ($30,000) is often insufficient to cover medical expenses from even moderate injuries
• Catastrophic cycling injuries can result in medical expenses reaching hundreds of thousands or millions of dollars
• Detailed documentation after a cycling accident is crucial, including medical attention, police reports, witness information, and photographs
• North Carolina's contributory negligence law means cyclists could recover nothing if found even 1% at fault for an accident
• Safety practices like wearing helmets, using lights, and avoiding confrontational behavior protect you physically and legally
• Keep detailed records of all cycling equipment purchases and upgrades to ensure proper valuation after an accident
• GoPro cameras can provide valuable evidence in cycling accidents
• Always seek proper medical attention after an accident, particularly for head injuries which should be evaluated by concussion specialists.
