Motorcycle Accidents
Motorbikes, scooters, and mopeds appeal to many people who like the freedom of the open road and the ability to go anywhere they want with ease. Unfortunately, an increase in motorbikes on Scottish roads has translated to a spike in related accidents and injuries, including serious incidents.
Here are some of the common causes of motorcycle accidents:
Anyone who rides a motorbike is at risk of an accident. Statistically speaking, young men are more at risk, but older riders are equally vulnerable. The main problem for a motorcyclist being involved in an accident is that they don’t have the same level of protection as other road users. This, combined with the fact they are less visible, means they run a greater risk of being seriously injured.
If you or a loved one have been involved in a motorcycle accident, then you may be entitled to compensation. At Watermans, we employ expert personal injury solicitors who are experienced in handling road traffic accident claims relating to motorcycles. We can offer straightforward legal advice in relation to your situation and help you make a motorcycle injury claim.
Motorbike Injuries
Motorbike accidents usually involve the rider being thrown off their bike or becoming trapped underneath another vehicle or their own bike. This can result in serious injuries and sometimes death.
Motorcycle accidents can lead to a range of injuries, from minor injuries to life-changing or even fatal injuries. Here are some of the most common injuries that you can make a motorcycle accident compensation claim for:
If you’ve been injured in a motorcycle accident that wasn’t your fault, you may be entitled to compensation for your injuries through a motorbike accident claim.

A serious motorbike injury has long-lasting effects on both the rider and their family.
