CYCLE ACCIDENT CLAIMS ADVICE FROM PERSONAL INJURY SOLICITORS

Cycle accident claims advice from personal injury solicitors specialising in bike accident claims and winning substantial compensation.

Here’s an example of some of the stranger cycle accident claims that we receive.

I had a cycle accident on Saturday and wish to make a claim. I was cycling along our high street when an old lady suddenly pushed her wicker trolley out into the street between two parked cars. Unable to take evasive action, the front wheel of my cycle struck the lady’s basket and catapulted me over the handle bars and into the path of an oncoming single decker bus which failed to stop.

As I flew through the air, I was able to see that the driver was talking to a passenger rather than paying attention to my approach. So he got the shock of his life as I hit his windscreen and dropped to the tarmac where the bus came to rest with its outside front wheel on my left leg.

CYCLE ACCIDENT CLAIMS

As I lay their concussed, a motorcyclist overtook a car that had stopped to avoid colliding with me and promptly drove over my right arm which was protruding out into the road. The motorcyclist in turn proceeded to slide sideways on his side and come to rest under the wheels of a builders tip up truck. I bet you don’t get many cycle accident claims like this.

I received concussion, crushed pelvis, broken left leg and right arm as a result of the accident. By the time the police and ambulance arrived, the old lady who had caused the accident had disappeared although I have two independent witnesses who saw what happened and have provided witness statements to the police. I have been told I am likely to be in hospital for at least twelve weeks and off work for a further three months.

As I am a self-employed psychic, do I have a claim for compensation for my cycle accident and if so, from whom? My bike was a right off by the way.
