CLAIM THE MOTOR-BIKE ACCIDENT COMPENSATION YOU DESERVE

The worst kinds of accidents are usually motor bike accidents, because the rider is more vulnerable to injuries from these kinds of accidents. As a biker, you are several times more likely to sustain far worse injuries because of an accident. Since a motor bike is balanced by the rider on 2 wheels, as opposed to a car with its machine balanced 4 wheels, a bike is more likely to skid dangerously on a patch of oil or sand, and if the rider loses control, he could have a very fatal accident. Thus, car drivers and drivers of other 4 wheeler vehicles must be especially careful around motor bikes, because one tiny scrape could cause them to get hurt very badly.

Special claims

Motor-bike drivers, who have been involved in serious accidents due to no fault of theirs, are thus entitled to claim motor-bike accident compensation from the culprits, because of the above reasons. If you have an accident thus, which is not your fault, the first thing you should do (if you are lucid enough) is to at least get the licence plates of the other vehicle, and exchange insurance details with the driver of the other vehicle. Also notify your own insurance agent as soon as possible. You should also call the police, depending on how serious you deem the accident to be, or how careless the driver of the other vehicle appeared to be.

Compensation

Motor- bike accident insurance can fetch you a compensation that depends on your age, sex, driving record, etc. If you are a woman, you are entitled to more compensation for scarring. It also depends on the degree of damage done to you, your vehicle and any co-passenger who was riding the bike with you. A major factor to prove here would be the degree of carelessness of the other driver. If there are sufficient witnesses and proof to show that the other driver was drunk at that time, or has a string of tickets, getting the compensation would be easy for you. However, most of the time the defence lawyers try to hide all that information, or sugar coat it with some excuse. They may try to raise questions on your driving skills too. You must be prepared for all this. If you have any doubts regarding the details of the accident, try going it over several times with your own lawyer until you get every detail correctly. Even a slight faltering could be used against you. Also make sure that all the required medical records have been inspected by a renown medical examiner, or use a medical lawyer, who’s area of expertise will be best for you. You however, should always remember that if anywhere, it was partly your fault too, it is really not right to claim any motor-bike accident insurance.
