Yes, you can still recover compensation even if you were partially at fault for your bicycle accident in Oklahoma. The state follows a 51 percent modified comparative fault rule, which allows you to pursue damages as long as you were 50 percent or less responsible for the incident. If you are found to be partially at fault, your total compensation will be reduced by your specific percentage of responsibility. However, if your fault is determined to be 51 percent or greater, you are prohibited from recovering any damages under Oklahoma law. An experienced bicycle accident law firm can review the evidence, accurately gauge your percentage of liability, and work to shift fault to the driver to help maximize your recovery.
