If you are hit by a car while riding a bike in Ohio, your first priority should be your safety and health. Call 911, seek medical attention immediately—even if your injuries seem minor—and make sure a police report is completed. If you are able, document the scene by taking photos, gathering witness information, and obtaining the driver’s insurance details. Avoid discussing fault at the scene, and do not give a recorded statement to an insurance company before understanding your rights. Bicycle accident cases often involve serious injuries and disputed liability, so acting promptly and preserving evidence is critical to protecting your potential claim.
