Guest: Peter Wilborn

I try to convey really pertinent, honest, and accurate information all the time; but today I am being somewhat “schooled” by my guest, and I appreciate him taking me to task.

Attorney Peter Wilborn is the founder of Bike Law.  His brother was killed in a bicycle crash many years ago and that is what led Peter to focus his career on representing cyclists and their families on what Bike Law terms “your worst day.”

Our topic for this episode is AI and how it is impacting bicycle related cases – not usually for the better.

Peter explains in this, our last scheduled episode about safety for the season, how AI is being used by not only the average lay person, but by some lawyers and law firms, and those answers are often incomplete, misleading, and perhaps not up to date on current law.

Ask an AI bot to answer a legal question and what you get back is possibly not going to be sound legal advice.  In fact, according to Peter, you might end up losing a case that is winnable – and it’s not always about money.

As you will hear, there is no substitute for the expertise of an attorney whose career has been laser focused on bike law.

My thanks to Peter for joining me today.  I always learn so much from him!

As artificial intelligence becomes more and more ubiquitous, I really appreciate Peter’s expertise and his willingness to share it with straightforward information.

I also found his questions – “who are the leaders in the fight for cyclists?  And, what can the thought leaders in our community do to rally around the few voices that can really make a difference?” thought provoking. 

Perhaps you have ideas about what is going to make cycling safer.  If so, share them!
