A Lehigh Valley PA bicycle accident settlement of $50,000.00 was agreed to after a grossly negligent situation caused a bicycle accident.  The Bethlehem PA resident was riding his bicycle near his home.  Workers left a cable strung across the road without any flags or cones to warn bicyclists of the dangerous condition.  The cable caught the Lehigh Valley Pennsylvania bicycle accident victim in the neck causing him to be thrown off the bike into the street.
