Bike riders, whether motorised or pedalling, are generally vulnerable to the carelessness of other vehicle users and particularly so to vehicles turning at junctions. We have a great deal of experience running such cases, which are usually successful.

In most cases there will be an insurer covering the other party. If not, there is an organisation called the Motor Insurers Bureau (MIB) who may meet the claim. It is often unknown initially whether or not the other party is insured and because the MIB have very strict time limits it is very important that the following steps are taken after any accident:

• Take down the details of the other party at the scene, including name, address, telephone and insurance details and vehicle registration number.
• Report the matter to the police immediately. If for any reason this is not possible report the accident in person to a police station as soon as you can (and get a reference number)
• Take details of any other party and any witnesses.
• Contact your own insurers, if relevant
