When you are unfortunate enough to be involved in a road traffic accident, it is stressful enough without finding out that the other party has no insurance in place. If you have been injured in an accident, even if the other driver has no insurance, you may still be able to make a personal injury claim. It is perhaps more straight forward (only slightly) if the other party does have insurance – but regardless, you can still make a compensation claim if you have been injured in an accident with an uninsured driver.
First of all we would take the necessary steps to check whether the other driver does have insurance. If the other driver does not have insurance then we would look to pursue the claim against the Motor Insurers Bureau (MIB) which is designed so that victims like you still have a course of action when involved in an accident with an uninsured driver. The MIB is funded by insurance companies – The Road Traffic Act 1988 requires that every insurer that underwrites compulsory motor insurance must be a member of the MIB and must contribute to the MIB’s funding.
Having an accident and dealing with the consequences following an accident can be a cause of stress and annoyance. In addition it can be time consuming. If you have been injured in a road traffic accident which was not your fault, then it is your right to make a compensation claim.
