Motorbikes & Quadbikes

If you have been involved in a motor accident, you may be able to make a personal injury claim for compensation. Call now on 0800 3213 3239 for a no obligation chat with one of our solicitors.

Road traffic accident compensation claims usually involve a claim for compensation for injury (both physical and psychological) together with a claim for the repairs to the vehicle, recovery of the insurance excess or a claim for the vehicle being written off. In addition loss of earnings for the time the injured person spends off work and other expenses such as travel costs, hire car charges and medical bills can also be recovered.

In the case of more serious injures there can be compensation claims for future losses also if they cannot return to their job due to the nature of the injury they have suffered or they can only work reduced hours.

The effects of such accidents can be far reaching for the injured person and their family.

Motorbike accidents, although not as common as car accidents, often result in more serious injuries due to the lack of protection afforded to motor cyclists and their passengers although it is common in minor incidents to suffer from a whiplash injury.

Usually these accidents happen when other road users do not see the motorbikes approach and there is a national campaign entitled ‘THINK BIKE’ to try and raise the awareness of other road users. You can be a very safe bike rider however there is always the other driver to watch out for.

There are instances however where the bike itself is defective or the road surface is uneven/potholed and this can cause an accident to happen.
