Can a Bicyclist Still Receive Compensation if Partially At Fault in California?

Video Transcript

If you’re partially at fault for your bicycle accident, it might not be the end of your case — but it just depends on how much at fault you are. In California, we have a rule called comparative fault, where the jury is allowed to decide what percentage of fault goes to you versus the defendant. But in other states, you might be barred from recovering.
