While a bicyclist can sustain any type of injury when hit by a vehicle, head injuries are among the most common type of injury for bicyclists. Facial lacerations and injuries are also common in bicycle accidents, including a fractured jaw, blindness or eye injury, lost or broken teeth, a broken nose, or permanent scarring and disfigurement. Musculoskeletal trauma and soft tissue injuries are very common following a bicycle accident. Broken legs, torn ligaments in the knee, a dislocated shoulder, a sprained or broken wrist, or broken ribs and internal bleeding are all common injuries resulting from being hit by a vehicle.
