01
Evidence that may help explain what happened
Bicycle and helmet when relevant. Signal, lighting, sight-line, and surface photographs. Witness, vehicle, report, and treatment information. Preserve originals where practical, note who created each record, and do not alter damaged property or digital files merely to make them easier to present.
02
People and organizations that may hold information
A driver may not be the only relevant party; vehicle ownership, employment, products, or public roadway control may require review.
State law, local procedures, and the facts of an individual matter require separate verification. These sources do not provide personalized legal advice.
