In Tennessee, the traffic laws and rules of the road that drivers must abide by also apply to bicyclists. This includes yielding, right-of-way laws, and sharing the roads. If a driver is negligent and fails to follow these basic rules and injures a cyclist, then they may be held liable for the accident. Were you injured by a negligent driver?
