• Industrial debris caused by roadworks that gets on to the carriageway;
• Debris from damaged highways that’s caused by poor maintenance.

How do you win a case like this?

You can succeed with claims that stem from motorbike crashes from road debris where we can prove that there was negligence on the part of someone else.

Road users owe each other a duty of care, and where this is breached and injuries are caused, they can be liable for a claim. The same goes for organisations carrying out work or charged with maintenance as well.

You will normally pursue the case through their insurers who can agree to settle the claim for damages where negligence is accepted or established.
