Start Your Claim NowWe’re apparently due for some warmer weather this weekend, so I expect bikers to be out in force. With that in mind, here’s some advice if you have a motorbike accident on a country road.
As we often say, with the warmer weather comes more bikers. A country ride is a wonderful thought, but it’s not without its dangers. With drivers going too fast and pulling out from junctions, country roads with higher speed limits can be dangerous for riders. If you’re a rider who’s injured in an accident that was not your fault, you may be entitled to make a claim for personal injury compensation.
Here’s a little advice about your rights.
You can be entitled to make a claim for personal injury compensation if you’re a rider who’s injured in a motorbike accident on a country road.
Some of the common circumstances where you may have a case include:
These are all common ways in which bikers can be injured on normal roads, but on country roads, the risks can be far greater.
The simple reason for that is speed.
With most country roads operating speed limits between 50mph and 60mph, drivers and riders are usually going faster. And that’s when drivers can easily make a mistake in circumstances where there’s simply not enough time for a rider to do something about it. The duty is of course on the driver to not make a mistake, but where they do, it’s far harder to dodge a hazard when you’re travelling at higher speeds.
It’s also important to address serious injuries sustained in a motorbike accident on a country road as well.
With speeds generally being higher, injuries can often be more severe.
As a law firm, we of course specialise in motorbike accident compensation claims, but we also specifically deal with higher volumes of serious injury claims as well. For those types of cases, it’s incredibly important to instruct a more experienced law firm with the right resources and staff to be able to provide you with the best service possible.
