Riding a bicycle in New York will continues to be a popular way to get around no-matter how dangerous NYC street may be. In 2014 there were 284 cyclist accidents with 94 of those accidents resulting in serious injury according to NYPD Statistics.

Drivers in New York will forget to make room for bicyclists. Distracted driving, dui behavior, and cell phone usage while driving are a dangerous recipe for disaster for cyclists.

New York bicycle crashes can be fatal. Riding a bicycle in NYC can be risky. Maintaining control is more difficult on two wheels, and when collisions happen, bicyclists are at greater risk of serious injury or death because they don't have an enclosed vehicle for protection.

Common causes of bicycle crashes include:

• Vehicles turning across path of cyclist
• Cyclist riding into the path of a motor vehicle
• Cyclist turning right from a major road and from a minor road
• Child cyclist not abiding by NY street laws.

Twenty cyclists died in traffic crashes in the last NYC fiscal year, up from 16 in FY 2015, and 14 in FY 2014. Overall traffic fatalities fell 5.2% over the same period, from 249 in FY 2015 to 236 in FY 2016.
