What the Law Says

Texas Transportation Code § 551.101 gives bicyclists on public roadways the same rights and responsibilities as motor vehicle drivers, meaning motorists must yield and share the road as they would with another vehicle. When a driver fails to recognize a cyclist’s right-of-way at an intersection like Old Koenig Lane and North Lamar Boulevard, serious injuries like the ones reported here can result. This statute is often central to determining fault when a vehicle strikes a bicyclist.

Texas Transportation Code § 545.351 requires drivers to operate at a speed that is reasonable and prudent for existing conditions, and never faster than allows them to safely control the vehicle. Excessive speed reduces a driver’s ability to see and react to bicyclists sharing the roadway, particularly at busy intersections. Investigators reviewing this crash will likely examine whether speed played a role in the driver’s failure to avoid the collision.
