MOTORCYCLE ACCIDENTS:

When other people are careless motorcyclists often pay the price. Potholes, fuel spills and poor observation by other drivers are common causes of motorcycle accidents. If you are injured in a motorcycle accident caused by some other person you can and should take action to obtain compensation for personal injury and other losses.

MOTORCYCLE ACCIDENT, WHO IS TO BLAME?

It is unusual for all parties involved to agree on who is to blame for an accident involving a motorcycle. Many motorcycle accidents occur because a car or van driver fails to see a motorcycle even when the motorcycle is on a roundabout or progressing down a main road. Yet, immediately after the accident the other driver states that “the motorcycle was speeding”.

MOTORCYCLE ACCIDENT, DANGEROUS ROAD SURFACE

Councils are responsible for maintaining and inspecting roads. If inspectors were motorcyclists it is likely that the inspection would be more focused on issues such as misaligned drain covers, poor reinstatement of surfaces, pot holes and the accumulation of loose stone chippings following resurfacing work.

MOTORCYCLE ACCIDENTS, SPILLS AND DEBRIS

Where accidents are caused by spillages of diesel or ice due to a leaking drain, car washing or debris from building works or farming activity it is often possible to identify the persons responsible.

MOTORCYCLE ACCIDENT: REPORTING, PHOTOGRAPHS AND WITNESSES

It will help your claim for compensation if you have reported your accident to the police and there is a formal record. Photographs of the scene taken on a mobile phone or camera are also very helpful. Always obtain medical assistance to check and treat injuries and again a photographic record of the injury may be appropriate.

MOTORCYCLE ACCIDENT: CLAIMING COMPENSATION FOR INJURY

Motorcycle accidents result in injuries that range from cuts and bruises to catastrophic injuries. In the case of serious injuries it is important that you have a solicitor acting for you whilst you are recovering or in rehabilitation.
