Cyclists and Pedestrians have rights on the road. When motorists violate those rights, either through carelessness or a lack of respect, serious or fatal accidents are often the tragic result.

In 2008, 700 cyclists were killed and 44,000 injured nationwide, according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. Traffic accidents killed almost 5,000 pedestrians and injured another 70,000.

Groups like the Atlanta Bicycle Coalition work to advocate for bikers on hundreds of miles of scenic trails and roadways in Atlanta and throughout Georgia by promoting cycling as an environmentally friendly, healthy activity that reduces congestion.

Others are bicycling or walking out of necessity and deserve the respect of other motorists on the road.
