Motorcycle Accidents - Am I Entitled to Compensation?
The amount of motorcycle users on our roads is a much smaller percentage than that of car users. There are many different reasons why people prefer to use a motorcycle to a car such as they have been brought up around motorcycles so its only natural, others prefer to use them as they are an easier way of getting around the traffic on our roads. However you are sadly 40 times more likely to be killed as a motorcyclist than a car driver.
If you are using a motorcycle you should always take extra care as it is often hard for cars to see a motorcycle approaching. As well as keeping an extra eye on the road it is also important to ensure that you are wearing the right sort of clothing and have the right protection in the form of your helmet. Your helmet should be approved to the right safety guidelines and you should ensure it fits your head properly. If your helmet becomes damaged, even in the slightest, for any reason it is important that you replace it as soon as possible.
The clothes that you are wearing whilst using your motorcycle could also help to save your life. You should invest in CE marked clothing; get a jacket, trousers and boots. This type of clothing is designed for motorcycle users as it is designed to protect you as much as it can if you have a fall from your motorcycle.
It is estimated that 3000 people die and 30,000 people are seriously injured everyday on roads worldwide. These accidents can leave you as a motorcyclist with serious personal injury including injury to your back, head or spine. Many accidents that happen involving motorcycle users are as a result of someone else's negligence or because you couldn't be seen clearly by another vehicle. If you have been involved in a personal injury accident in the last three years through no fault of your own you could be entitled to personal injury compensation.
