Nashville isn’t known for being a particularly bicyclist-friendly city. In fact, a study in May 2022 found that Nashville is one of the least bike-friendly cities in the U.S. due to having relatively few cycling resources and a less bikeable metro area compared to other cities.

Although Nashville is no cyclist’s utopia, riding a bike around town or as part of your daily commute can be done safely. But to make your rides safer, you’ll need to follow a few important steps to reduce your risks. These steps include:

1.Wear a helmet.

Head injuries can be fatal when you’re involved in a crash while riding your bicycle. Wearing a properly-fitted helmet can save your life.

2.Use reflectors and wear reflective/brightly colored clothing.

Equip your bike with reflectors, which are useful both at night and during the day. And while you may not be able to wear flashy colors to your job, wearing a brightly colored and reflective vest or helmet can make it much easier for drivers to spot you on the road.

3. Learn and use bicycle hand signals.

Drivers rely on turn signals and brake lights to know what other motorists are doing. As a bicyclist, it’s important to let drivers know what you’re doing, too. That means using hand signals:

Other important safety tips include using side roads when available, watching for opening car doors when riding near parked cars, and giving yourself plenty of time to reach your destination.

    Always very professional. When we first called we had no idea if we even had a case, they told us we did. And even though the resolution took a little bit longer than expected, the wait was worth it. They get results and I really appreciated that they consistently gave me updates on the status of my case without me even asking. Thank you Ponce Law!

    I was driving down I-40 when I got hit by another car. I called Michael Ponce because I wanted an attorney right here in Nashville. As soon as I called, I knew I made the right decision, and Ponce Law got me the money I needed to get back on my feet. I highly recommend Ponce Law!

    After my car accident, I wasn’t sure if I needed an attorney. I called Ponce Law for a free consultation. I’m so glad I made the call. I wanted a local attorney, and from the first call, to when my case was settled, I felt heard, valued, and taken care of.

    I was on I-40 coming into Nashville and a car ran into the back of me. The accident was serious, and I needed surgery. I did ask an attorney friend of mine whom I should call, and he said call Ponce Law. The folks at Ponce Law were outstanding and got us a large settlement.
