Bicycle rides are great for exercise, enjoying the fresh air and nature all around you. Unfortunately, even if you adhere to all required and suggested safety measures, there’s a chance you could be seriously injured on a bike ride. From being hit by an inattentive or impaired driver to falling victim to hazards in the road, bicycle injuries are an unwelcome but common part of riding.
Bicycle accidents, much like motorcycle accidents, can be highly dangerous for riders, as they are more exposed to the open road than people in cars. This means they typically sustain more serious injuries, and, in turn, have longer and more extensive recoveries. Even with declining numbers in recent years, there are more than 50,000 people injured in bicycle accidents each year, with about 12% of these accidents have been fatal.
Reasons that the number of fatal bike accidents has risen include:

Potholes
Potholes can occur due to a couple of reasons:
Sewer Grates Manhole covers
Sewer grates can present a serious danger to cyclists. If sewer grate bars go in the same direction as traffic, bike tires can easily become stuck between them.
Manhole covers
Manhole covers can become significantly lower than the grade of the road causing cyclists to quickly deviate away and sometimes wind up too close to traffic.
Railroad Tracks
Seldom used or even abandoned railroad tracks often times present hidden dangers to cyclists. They are hazardous when the tracks run on the roadway specifically in the direction of traffic, all the more so when tracks cross the road at a curve. A bicycle wheel can easily be caught in the space between the rail and road, causing the cyclist to crash or be thrown in the direction of a motor vehicle.
