Accidents on a Night Out

With the festive season approaching more and more of us will be looking to celebrate, which in most cases means a few nights out in our local city centre. Everyone enjoys a good night out, it allows us to let our hair down and just focus on having a good time.

For those of us who are usually more reserved, a few glasses of wine allow us to let our hair down like every body else. We become more daring and chatty, wanting to talk to any body who will listen. There’s something about Christmas that makes everyone that little bit more friendly.

When we are on a night out there is always going to be the possibility that we become involved in an accident that wasn’t our fault. When this happens some of us choose not to make an injury compensation claim because we think that we won’t be able to, due to the circumstances. Pubs and clubs have the same safety regulations to follow like any other facility.

They need to carry out regular checks to make sure that there are no spillages or hazards that could cause any one injury. Some clubs have policies such as no drinks on the dance floor; this prevents people spilling their drinks and therefore lowers the risk of somebody becoming injured due to this.

If you become involved in an accident whilst on a night out you may still be able to make an injury compensation claim if the accident wasn’t your fault. This will depend on a number of factors, one of the main ones will be the amount of alcohol you drank prior to the accident. If you were over the legal drink drive limit at the time of your accident this may affect your claim.

To be successful at making any type of injury compensation claim you will need to be able to prove that the accident you suffered was due to the negligence of another and that the negligence they showed caused you accident.
