Report the accident and request medical assistance. A Reno Police Department report creates an official record of the collision and the driver’s information.
Photograph your bicycle, the vehicle, the road, traffic signals, and any bike lane markings. Note if the crash occurred near the Truckee River bike path, UNR campus, or along a city bike route.
Visit Renown Regional Medical Center or Saint Mary’s even if injuries seem minor. Head injuries, fractures, and internal injuries may not show symptoms immediately.
Insurance companies often undervalue cyclist claims. Phoong Law protects your rights and pursues full compensation.
Reno has invested in cycling infrastructure including the Truckee River bike path, bike lanes along key corridors, and connections through Midtown and the University of Nevada Reno campus. Despite these improvements, cyclists remain vulnerable to distracted drivers, dooring incidents, and vehicles encroaching on bike lanes throughout the city.
High traffic corridors like Virginia Street, South Virginia Street, McCarran Boulevard, and Wells Avenue see frequent bicycle collisions. Nevada law requires drivers to give cyclists a safe passing distance when overtaking. Under Nevada’s modified comparative negligence system, injured cyclists can recover compensation as long as they are not more than 50 percent at fault.
Bicycle accident injuries are often severe because cyclists have no protection against impact with a vehicle. Nevada law allows full recovery for all accident related losses, including extensive medical treatment and long term rehabilitation.
Emergency care at Renown Regional or Saint Mary’s, orthopedic surgery, dental reconstruction, and physical therapy for cycling injuries.
Wages lost during recovery and reduced earning capacity if injuries prevent you from returning to your previous work.
Physical pain, emotional trauma, scarring, and the impact on your ability to ride and enjoy daily activities.
Replacement or repair of your bicycle, helmet, and other gear damaged in the crash.

Yes. Nevada law requires drivers to maintain a safe distance when overtaking a cyclist. Violations of this law can establish driver negligence in a bicycle accident claim.
Nevada does not require adult cyclists to wear helmets. Not wearing a helmet does not prevent you from filing a claim, though it may affect compensation for head injuries.
Yes. Cyclists are legally allowed to ride on most Reno roads. Under comparative negligence, you can recover compensation as long as you are not more than 50 percent at fault.
Hit and run cases can still be pursued through your own uninsured motorist coverage. We also work to identify the driver through surveillance footage and witness statements.
Nevada’s statute of limitations is two years from the date of the accident. Contact an attorney promptly to preserve evidence and protect your rights.
