Motorcycle accident

Motorbikes have always been a great way to travel around – for both leisure and convenience. Unfortunately, motorcyclists are very prone to accidents which can prove to be life threatening. It’s not just the motorbiker who is affected, but also his friends and family. Motorbike accidents can cause long-lasting trauma on physical and mental health.

Unfortunately, accidents involving motorcyclists occur too frequently, often due to inattentive drivers.

Motorcyclists are categorised as one of the most vulnerable road users (VRU’s), as they lack various means of protection like seatbelts, airbags, head-rest or any kind of outer shell to protect the person riding the motorbike. Despite a drop in motorbike accidents from 1979 to 2013 by 76%, they still continue to have the highest accident rate and injury rate per mile.

In 2022, 350 motorcyclists died in the Great Britian, 5,618 were injured seriously, and 10,975 were injured slightly.

Death rate of motorcyclists is almost 40 times higher than car drivers.

Even though motorcyclists amount to less than 1% of road traffic, they still account for 19% of road deaths in the UK. 86% of these deaths are males, over a third from them being under 25 years of age.

On average, 30 motorcyclists suffer serious or fatal injuries, on a daily basis. Motorcyclists are 51 times more likely to be killed in a road accident.

Justice for David: Surviving a motorbike accident

motorcycle accident

David, a motorbike enthusiast was caught in a harrowing accident. He would usually go with his friends for long rides. On this fateful day, David didn’t know what was ahead of him. A car driver abruptly crossed the lane, and David could do nothing to avoid the collision which threw him violently into a barrier, nearby.

The accident was brutal. It left David with a waist-down paralysis and multiple fractures. He was admitted to the nearest trauma-centre where he went through an emergency treatment – which was a lifesaver.

Yet, David’s full recovery was a long road.

Our motorbike accident attorneys understood the physical, emotional and financial toll the accident had taken on David. Our lawyers felt an urgent need for interim financial assistance to cover medical expenses, physiotherapy, rehabilitation costs and important changes made to David’s home so that it would be comfortable for him live there, after the accident.

David later expressed his gratitude: “The interim payments that I received have been a life-changer. They facilitated me in bringing necessary changes to my living room, exploring technology to make my life easy.”

David was particularly satisfied with the technical expertise of Claim Time’s motorcycle accident solicitors: “One of the best things about my legal team was their deep understanding about motorbike dynamics and accident mechanics. They analysed the accident scene in-depth, and created a compelling case by advanced reconstruction techniques. Their attention to detail and efficiency with which they dealt with insurance companies gave me a lot of confidence and assurance that I was in their capable hands”.
