Should be covered by your renters/homeowners policy. Medical or general
liability. Umbrella is additional coverage on top of renters/homeowners/auto policy.

I am not worrying about my bike getting stolen (all the insurance policies I found with google offer this) but about running into a pedestrian and having to pay the medical bills. I live in California. Thanks a bunch, Tony |

I know this is a silly question to ask in regards to insurance, but do you expect to run into pedestrians much? I've done it. (True Confessions) I was in a hurry, flying down an empty bike path when a couple of pre-teen girls wandered onto the trail just in front of me (oblivious to everything around them as only pre-teen girls can be). As they were moving to the right, I had just enough time to brake, call "on your left" and then react as one of them, yes, moved back to the left. I had slowed to about 15 by the time I hit her. Fortunately, I only hit the back of her left arm with my right arm as I squeezed by, and I didn't go down. She was fine, but if I had reacted a bit slower or if she had moved farther left, either or both of us could have been seriously hurt (most likely me, as I would have bailed off to the side). As the adult, it was entirely my responsibility. Dunno what I was thinking, going into time-trial mode on a bike trail in the middle of a sunny weekend afternoon -- I should've known better. I guess I figured a clear trail ahead was safe enough. So it can and does happen, and it could easily be an oblivious child who causes the accident. Better to be insured. JR |
