Bicyclist injured in Lodi crash, police investigating
California Vehicle Code 21200 gives bicyclists on public roads the same rights and the same duties as drivers of motor vehicles. That includes obeying traffic signals, so the question of who had the right of way at a signal-controlled intersection is central. Fault is decided from the evidence, such as witness accounts, signal timing and any video.
When a city vehicle is involved, California Government Code 911.2 generally requires that a written claim for personal injury be presented to the public entity within six months of the incident. Missing that deadline can limit a person’s legal options. Anyone hurt in a crash involving a government vehicle may want to learn about these deadlines promptly.
