ABSTRACT
An analysis of 58 cases of fatal bicycle accidents during the years 1991-1996. Substantial prevalence of males was a common feature among deceased persons especially in the 21-40-year and 61-70-year age groups. More fatal bicycle accidents occurred in evening hours between 6 and 12. The proportion of alcohol influence among dead cyclists was standardly high and the usage of protective helmet was not found. Further analysis concerned the types of injuries after fall on a firm base, after collision with a solid subject or with means of transformation. Craniocerebral injury was the cause of death in 65.5% of cases. Because of increase in popularity of bicycle as simple means of transportation a further increase of fatal cyclist accidents can be presumed requiring precise follow-up by forensic medicine.
