Legal help after a motorbike accident

A motorcycle collision can disrupt your health, income and independence. MWG can discuss a potential injury claim arising from another road user’s actions and help identify the evidence needed to establish responsibility. Claims can involve junction collisions, vehicles turning across a rider’s path, unsafe overtaking or a pillion passenger’s injuries. A collision does not automatically establish fault: witness accounts, road conditions and the actions of those involved all matter.

Preserve the evidence as early as possible

  • Obtain appropriate medical attention and record how the injuries occurred.
  • Keep driver, vehicle, insurer and witness details where available.
  • Preserve helmet-camera or dashcam footage before it is overwritten.
  • Keep photographs of the scene, motorcycle, clothing and protective equipment.
  • Save receipts, repair assessments and records of time away from work.
Report the incident when required. Avoid disposing of damaged equipment before its condition has been documented and the team has advised about evidence.

Injury, rehabilitation and financial losses

A claim may address pain and suffering and reasonable financial losses caused by the injury. Depending on the evidence, these can include lost earnings, treatment, travel, care and damaged riding equipment. Motorcycle damage and other vehicle losses need to be considered alongside any insurance arrangements. Where injuries have lasting consequences, rehabilitation, future care and reduced earning capacity may require specialist assessment. Our Serious Injury service explains the wider issues. A head injury may also require the approach described on our Brain Injury service.

Disputed fault or an uninsured driver

Do not assume that an allegation about your riding prevents a claim. Responsibility and any reduction for contributing to the damage must be assessed against the evidence. We cannot promise an outcome before those facts are investigated. The Motor Insurers’ Bureau may provide a route where the responsible driver is uninsured or cannot be traced, subject to its agreements and requirements. Seek advice promptly because reporting and claim requirements can differ.

Motorcycle Accident Questions

A pillion passenger may have a claim against a legally responsible party, including a rider or another driver. Responsibility depends on the facts and evidence.

An allegation does not determine the outcome. The evidence must be considered, and shared responsibility can affect the amount recovered.

Reasonable losses caused by the incident may be recoverable where proved. Keep photographs, receipts and the damaged items where possible, and check your insurance arrangements.

An MIB claim may be available, subject to its requirements. Preserve evidence, report the incident when required and obtain advice promptly.
