Pedestrian Bicycle Accidents

Population growth for the Tampa Bay area is projected at nearly 2% in 2018. Currently the Tampa Bay area ranks 23rd on the Forbes List of America’s Fastest Growing Cities. The growth explosion the Tampa Bay area has seen in recent years has brought with it more businesses, more roadways, more people on those roadways and more accidents involving pedestrians and bicyclists – and, sadly, more injuries.

According to the National Traffic Safety Administration, there were 840 bicycle rider deaths in 2016 in Florida – the highest since 1991. One of the most common causes of pedestrian or bicycle accidents are drivers who are failing to pay attention and observe crosswalks.
