As specialist personal injury lawyers, we deal with a lot of road traffic accidents and we often find that (rather obviously) road accidents involving smaller vehicles like motorbikes often lead to more serious injuries as they don’t offer the same protection a car can offer.
Quad bikes are no different, and they can often lead to more serious injuries as a rider and passengers do not have to wear a helmet when riding one.
So if you are out and about on the road and you are involved in an accident with another vehicle through no fault of your own, can you make a claim for personal injury compensation?
Your Rights
You are of course entitled to claim if the accident was not your fault. You don’t have to be in a car to make a claim. As long as the other driver is at fault you have a right of action against them. You are entitled to claim compensation for all the usual things anyone else can claim for. These are, for example:
- Compensation for the pain, suffering and loss of amenity caused.
- Vehicle damages to your quad.
- Lost earnings, medical expenses, and other financial losses and expenses caused by the accident or injuries.
With The Injury Lawyers, you don’t have to lift a finger when it comes to sorting out all the nitty gritty bits of putting you back in a financial position you were in pre-accident. We are more than happy to assist with hire, repair, and replacement needs for your quad as well as the claim for personal injury.
We can also look to arrange for privately funded physiotherapy paid in full by the other side. This should help you to get back on to the road to recover as soon as you can.
Give us a call today on 0800 634 7575 and we can get your claim started on the same day you speak with us. As long as you have the registration number of the vehicle at fault we can search the Motor Insurers Database to get the info we need to submit a claim form directly to the insurers.
