If you have been involved in a motor bike accident or other road
accident and suffered personal injury – either as a driver,
pedestrian, motorcycle rider/pillion or cyclist – you may be
entitled to claim for your personal injury and any other losses
if someone else was at fault.
Causes of accident claims include:
• Collision with another vehicle
• Falls from trying to avoid a vehicle
• Falls from hitting a defect in the road
• Pedestrian being hit by a vehicle
Road traffic accidents can result in personal injuries from cuts
and bruises or minor whiplash to serious knee injury, muscle
injury, brain injury or spinal injury.
In most road traffic accident claims, the insurance company of
the person who was at fault pays compensation.
Even in the case of an uninsured or ‘hit and run’ driver it is
possible to claim personal injury compensation through the Motor
Insurers Bureau, an organisation established to compensate the
victims of negligent, uninsured or untraced motorists. |
