About this listen
In this episode of It’s No Accident, hosts Jaeson Homola and Mark Nonni answer a listener question that comes up more often than you might think:If you’re hit while riding your bike, should you have been on the sidewalk instead of the road?The attorneys break down what Florida law actually says about bicyclists and the roadway, including whether cyclists are required to ride with traffic, whether bikes belong on sidewalks, and how comparative negligence can impact an injury claim. They also discuss a recent case involving an electric skateboard accident near Florida State University and how courts handle gray areas when statutes don’t perfectly match modern transportation devices.If you ride a bike, scooter, or electric skateboard — or if you’ve been injured in a bicycle accident in Florida — this episode explains your rights, your responsibilities, and how liability is determined when drivers claim, “You shouldn’t have been there.”
