Our speaker will be Steve Vaccaro, a leading lawyer and advocate for cyclists.

Steve has written about, advocated, organized, and litigated for cyclists’ rights for 15 years. In a profile of his personal injury practice, the New York Law Journal described Mr. Vaccaro as “perhaps New York City’s best-known lawyer advocate for bicyclist and pedestrian rights.” His presentation, “Bike Law, Bike Rights” will cover the following topics:
- The most common crash scenarios, how to avoid them, and insurance for when you can’t
- What to do when you’re in a crash
- Bike ticket tricks and tips
- New traffic laws every cyclist should know
- What the incoming Mayor and City Council mean for cycling in NYC
