Personal Injuries From Bike Accidents Are on the Rise, IFN Can Help the Injured

November 10, 2015, on Articles |

In recent years, more and more individuals have decided to ditch their automobiles for bike rides in the sun. However, the number of injuries stemming from bike collisions with automobiles has also increased as more people choose two wheels over four. In fact, a recent study conducted by The Journal of the American Medical Association revealed that between 1998 and 2013, the number of bike accidents and injuries requiring hospital admissions practically doubled.

So, what is causing the increase? The study suggests the causes include not only crashes with automobiles, but also falls and roads that were in disrepair and/or poor condition. The study also showed a correlation between injuries suffered and the age of the injured individuals, noting that the older the biker, the more likely they were to sustain injuries that were more serious in nature.

According to the study, older riders experienced about a 100 percent increase in the amount of injuries that required them to visit the emergency room. And unfortunately, the study also found that over 700 people die in bike accidents across America on a yearly basis.

Wondering How You’re Going to Make Ends Meet After Your Accident? Find Out How IFN Can Help

Given the openness of a bicycle, the potential injuries that can be sustained by an accident victim can be catastrophic. Some riders may be fortunate enough to escape serious injuries and only face minor scrapes and abrasions that heal fairly quickly. However, other accident victims may experience serious head and torso injuries, such that they will be unable to work for an extended period of time after the accident.

For those individuals seeking just compensation for their injuries, the amount of time it can take to resolve their cases can seem like a lifetime. So what’s a person to do? How is an injured individual who is out of work for months on end supposed to continue to take care of his or her family when the bank account is starting to get seriously low?

Some people turn to banks to seek loans, while others may seek help from friends and family. However, if those options do not work out for the injured party, there is still another way to help keep the family afloat, and that’s through Florida settlement funding.

Individuals who are working with attorneys to resolve their cases may be eligible for settlement funding, whether they are in Florida or most other states. Injury Funds Now (IFN) provides help to accident victims who need funds while they await a resolution to their case.

Unfortunately, insurance companies and/or the court system can experience extensive delays that can cause you to be without the funds you so desperately need for months or even years after an accident.

IFN can step in prior to a settlement or verdict to help alleviate the financial stress and strain that so many face after an accident. Any funds obtained from IFN can be used to take care of monthly financial obligations, as well as medical bills or other accident-related responsibilities. The process is easy and there are no application fees to get started.
