AC Joint Separation (Bike Crash)

This is one of Edward Seade, M.D.’s patients who is a professional road biker who fell and sustained an AC joint dislocation or separation by landing onto his shoulder during this fall. His riding partner happened to have a video camera on his helmet and captured the accident on tape. The rider received a grade III AC joint separation from this fall. His bike tire actually gets caught under the car tire and blows-up. On the slower videos one can see and hear the tire exploding. The car involved did stop to assist the rider. This type of motor vehicle / bike accident, in which the car turns in front of the biker in this manner, is very common.
