It\u2019s the time of year when advice for a bike accident in traffic may be useful to a lot of riders out there. Christmas is over, and the big commutes are back.<\/p>\n

Not only are the roads going to get busier and busier as the holidays close to a final end, the weather won\u2019t be helpful either. We have a few more months of darkness and cold, wet weather to endure.<\/p>\n

When the heating is up and the frustration of traffic in the dark gets too much, some drivers will make mistakes. That means a possible increase in the need for advice after a bike accident in traffic. For us, that means people are in need of our help, which we\u2019re happy to provide.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Can you claim for a bike accident in traffic?<\/strong><\/h3>\n

As an injured rider, you are entitled to claim compensation<\/strong><\/a> after a bike accident in traffic. If you were not at fault for the accident, you should be able to make a full claim for personal injury compensation. This means a claim for your injuries and for any losses and expenses caused as well (like lost earnings).<\/p>\n

This includes when a you\u2019re filtering between traffic \u2013 be it light or heavy. Riders know that filtering in traffic is fine, but a number of drivers still don\u2019t appear to understand this. We have those quick lane-changers that often cause injuries to riders who are safely weaving through traffic. The ones who don\u2019t check their mirrors when they sharply exit a line of traffic in frustration. Or the ones who U-turn for the same reasons.<\/p>\n

Impatience and a warm car can cause a little bit of laziness for drivers. This can lead to increased incidents of a bike accident in traffic.<\/p>\n
