Bicycle Accident Claims
Contrary to popular opinion those of us who choose two wheels rather than four, as their means of transport are more sinned against rather than sinning when it comes to accidents
Whilst the Highway Code classes cyclists as a vulnerable road user to whom car, van and lorry drivers should show “extra care” in practice they have a habit of pulling out from side roads into the path of oncoming bikes, opening car doors in their path, overtaking then slamming on the brakes and turning left across the path of the cyclist and leaving insufficient room to allow you to avoid potholes and drain covers.
The lack of seat belts and outside protection inevitably leaves the cyclist to come off worse should a collision occur.
Even in cases where you were in part to blame for an accident it is often worth while pursuing a claim as your loss will be disproportionately higher than that of the driver.
