Claiming Compensation After a Motorcycle Collision: Your Rights as an Injured Rider

Motorcycle riders face unique risks on the road, and when a motorcycle collision occurs, the consequences can be severe due to the lack of protection compared to car drivers.

If you have been injured in a motorcycle collision that was not your fault, you may be entitled to significant compensation. The Motorbike Injury Lawyers specialises in representing riders, helping thousands to recover the money they deserve for medical bills, lost income, bike repairs, pain, and long-term care.

Understanding Fault and Liability in a Motorcycle Collision

Proving fault is the cornerstone of any successful claim after a motorcycle collision. Common causes can include car drivers failing to see a rider (the infamous “Sorry Mate I Didn’t See You” excuse), dangerous overtaking, or pulling out at junctions without proper observation.

Our expert solicitors can gather crucial evidence such as:

  • Police reports and dash-cam or helmet-cam footage
  • Independent accident reconstruction reports
  • Eyewitness statements
  • Medical records linking your injuries directly to the collision

Even if you are found to be in any way partially at fault, you could still claim under contributory negligence rules — though your compensation may be reduced proportionally. The Motorbike Injury Lawyers has a proven track record of overcoming “biker blame” bias that some insurers try to exploit, and we will always do all we can to fight for the maximum possible payout.

Types of Compensation Available After a Motorcycle Collision

Injured riders could claim both “general” and “special” damages:

General damages (pain, suffering, and loss of amenity)

  • Serious leg or spinal injuries
  • Traumatic brain injury
  • Loss of limb

Special damages (financial losses)

  • Lost earnings (including future loss if you cannot return to work)
  • Medical treatment and rehabilitation costs
  • Motorbike damage and replacement hire
  • Travel expenses and home adaptations
  • Care and assistance, even if provided free by family

We can also pursue interim payments early in the claim, so you are not left struggling financially while your case progresses, where we can obtain one.
