You might be able to sue the driver if you were injured while riding your bicycle, even if you were not following the road rules. If the driver was at fault for the accident, you might be able to recover damages for your injuries. However, if you were also at fault for the accident, your recovery may be limited. In some states, if you are more than 50 percent at fault for an accident, you may not be able to recover any damages from the other party. In other states, you may still be able to recover damages, but your percentage of fault may reduce your recovery.
