While every bicycle accident-related injury will be different, bicyclists are commonly known to suffer bone fractures in accidents. Unfortunately, our bones aren’t able to withstand certain forces put on them. When a bicyclist makes impact with a car or object, the force can cause the bone to break resulting in one of the ten most common broken bone injuries, including:
- Broken collarbone (also known as a clavicle fracture)
- Broken ankle
- Broken arm
- Broken leg
- Broken fingers
- Broken hands
- Broken toes
- Broken feet
- Broken nose
- Broken jaw
