A motorbike accident is treated in law in just the same way as any other type of accident. The injured party needs to establish that the accident is someone (or something) else’s fault (or at least partly someone/something else’s fault). By law all drivers and riders must have at least third party insurance cover. This means that their insurers will pick up the bill if the driver causes an accident and injury to any other party (including any passengers, whether related to the driver or not).

If you have the bad luck to have been involved in an accident with an uninsured driver, or with a driver who doesn’t stop after the accident, you can make a claim through the Motor Insurers’ Bureau.
