It is not just car drivers and passengers who are at risk of having an accident on the roads; motorcyclists are too.
In 2004 a Department of Transport survey found that over 6,500 motorcycle riders and passengers were killed or seriously injured on the roads in the UK. Also the risk of a motorcycle rider being injured in an accident was 46 times higher than for car drivers.
Motorcycles have an increased likelihood of being involved in road accidents in the first place because of the fact that they are smaller and harder to see by other motorists.
Motorcyclists are at a much greater risk of death or serious injury than other road users . This is due to the lack of protection offered by their vehicles, no seatbelts for example. Obviously safety products such as reflective clothing and helmets are available to riders but these items do not always provide sufficient protection.
If you are a motorcyclist or passenger and have been injured as a result of a road traffic accident that wasn't your fault, you could be entitled to claim compensation .
