EP64 The Bicyclist Juror
There are times when bicyclists receive a Jury Service summons to the courthouse. What would you do when that happens to you? People can have different responses. For this, Richard shares some insights on The Bicyclist Juror. How is bicycling connected to jury duty? Tune in!
On Jury Duty
The conflict typically comes when a call is received from an injured bicyclist. Many would try to go through the process on their own. They do it in hopes that they will be treated fairly.
Sometimes the need to face a live jury provides a reality check for insurance companies. An injured bicyclist case can have a significant impact with a jury verdict.
A Constitutional Right
Jurors are unpredictable. While some try to escape jury duty, others respect it. It's a Constitutional right.
Bicyclists have rights just like any other citizen. That is why there are laws to protect them. Many believe that athletic lifestyle matters.
Call for Law Awareness
There are noneconomic damages that should be paid to an injured bicyclist. Among them are pain and suffering, distress, and change of lifestyle. A person's total loss may cost a lot.
Bicyclists will receive justice as long as they follow the law. There exists a need for educated, experienced individuals on the Jury.
