<div style="text-align: left;"><b>When you have a bike and car accident, serious injuries can occur. It is important to know the rules for when and if the driver is liable for your medical bills. However, the answer can vary depending on several factors:</b></div><ul style="text-align: left;"><li><b>Do you live in a no fault state? If so, your own insurance (in the form of personal injury protection or PIP) may pay medical bills and lost wages for injuries that aren't considered "serious." If this is the case, and your injuries don't fall under your state's definition of serious, you won't be able to pursue the driver of the car for your medical bills</b></li>
<li><b>Was the other person responsible? If you don't live in a no fault state, whether the driver is responsible for your bills depends on whether he was negligent or did something to cause the accident. If he did, he can be held liable and you can either sue him or agree to accept a settlement from his insurance company out of court. If you were negligent and caused the accident though, such as by puling out in front of him when he had the right of way, then you may either have you recovery limited or you may collect nothing at all</b></li>
</ul><div style="text-align: left;"><b>An experienced personal injury attorney can review the details of your case and help you to make a determination on whether the other driver is likely to be held responsible for your injuries or not. </b></div></div>
