A bicyclist is at an obvious disadvantage when they are struck by a car or truck. The bicyclist lacks the protection of a car or truck body, not to mention a lack of a seat belt or air bags. Someone on a bicycle that crashes with an automobile is nearly always thrown from the bicycle — perhaps onto the hard pavement of the street, sidewalk or parking lot, and perhaps after being thrown a sizeable distance.

The bicyclist, therefore, is likely to suffer serious injuries even when wearing a helmet:

• Head injury
• Neck injury
• Back injury
• Spinal cord injury
• Skin abrasion (road rash)
• Broken bones
