Accidents with uninsured drivers

If you are unfortunate enough to be involved in a road accident, the chances are that the person driving the other car will be a genuine member of the public and their car will be fully insured as required by law. 

There is however, a possibility that the person driving the other car will in fact be UNINSURED. In other words they have no insurance policy covering the car and for all intents and purposes have broken the law.

It may come as a surprise to learn that there are more than 1 million uninsured drivers on the road today.

That means the risk of being involved in an accident with someone who is uninsured - is substantial.

Whilst this adds insult to injury if the uninsured driver was also responsible for the accident - there is still a way you can secure rightful compensation.

The MOTOR INSURERS BUREAU (or MIB) is an organisation set up by the government to compensate injured victims of accidents involving uninsured motorists. This bureau also deal with cases involving untraced motorists and they provide an outlet for individuals to make an accident claim. 

There are certain restrictions in what can and cannot be claimed and generally it is important that an MIB specialist solicitor deals with your claim to ensure that you get the compensation you deserve. We have a panel of such experts who can help you with your accident claim.
