Who can be held liable for bike accidents at UC Berkeley?

It depends on whether the accident happened on campus or near campus as well as the parties involved. If you were hit by a motorist, cyclist, or person on an e-bike, they can be held liable for what happened. For accidents on campus, the university itself may be liable if the crash involved a known hazard that was not fixed (e.g., potholes, bad lighting).

As part of the University of California system, you may have a limited time to file an administrative claim to get compensation from UC Berkeley. Be sure to speak with an attorney as soon as possible after the biking accident.
