All road traffic accidents are scary experiences, yet motorcycle accidents are typically more severe and can be the cause of very serious injury.
This is because motorcycle riders are at much more risk to injury if they are involved in a collision or other road traffic accident. They are much more exposed and as such are at risk of severe, life-changing injuries.

Serious motorcycle accident claims
Due to the nature of riding a motorcycle and how exposed the rider is if an accident happens, motorcycle accidents can cause very serious injuries.
Serious injuries are best identified by how long they’ve needed treatment for, if you are unable to return to work and how long you are unable to return to work, as well as if you need assistance in completing day-to-day tasks.
Do I have a claim?
Whether you were a driver or passenger, if you were injured in a motorcycle accident and you were not at fault, you may be able to claim personal injury compensation.
It is important to have as many details about the accident to hand as possible, so that we can attempt to find the incident on CCTV and build a case. This includes when and where the incident took place, details of those involved, and of any witnesses if you have any.
You can still claim if you were involved in an accident where the driver didn’t have insurance, or if you were involved in a hit and run.
We offer free impartial advice on whether you can make a claim either by completing our online form, or calling our claim team on 0800 29 800 29. Alternatively, request a callback on this page and we will call you back.
Motorcycle accidents caused by a motorist
In order to claim, the accident must have been somebody else’s fault; either the fault of another road user or because of the road conditions.
If your injuries are the fault of another road user (car, motorbike, bus, etc.) then your compensation will come from their insurers rather than them personally.
Motorcycle accidents caused by uninsured drivers or hit and runs
If your motorcycle accident you were injured in was the fault of an uninsured driver or part of a hit and run then you might still be able to make a claim. If your claim is successful then it will be paid by the Motor Insurers’ Bureau (MIB).
Motorcycle accidents caused by poor road conditions
If your motorcycle accident injuries are due to poor road surfaces such as potholes or cracks in the road, then you may be able to make a claim against the Highways Agency or the local council depending on where the road is.
There is someone responsible for every road and pavement in the UK, and if it is unsafe to use and caused your accident, then you may be able to claim.
