Cycle Accident Compensation Claims

Cycling is an increasingly popular way to get around, especially when the cost of living is rising. With no need for fuel, tax or insurance to use a bike, they are convenient and cheap form of transport for many people.

However, cycling is not without its risks. Collisions with cars and other motor vehicles are a frequent occurrence. Due to their slow pace, many motorists lose patience and don’t give them enough space in their attempts to overtake.

As well as this, cyclists are also prone to poor road and weather conditions. Icy, slippery or wet roads can be the cause of accidents, as can potholes and general disrepair.

If you have been involved in a cycle accident, either because of another vehicle, or because the road has not been maintained in a proper manner, Injuries Direct are experts at dealing with cycle accident compensation claims.
