Pillion Passenger Accident
Pillion Passenger Accident
Riding as a passenger, seated on the pillion (back seat) of a motorcycle, can lead to serious injuries in the event of an accident. At Vélo Law we have the experience to consider your claim whether the driver was at fault, or not, to ensure that you are rehabilitated as quickly as possible.
In a pillion passenger accident, your injuries could be due to a collision with another vehicle, a defective road service or the negligence of the motorcycle driver.
At Vélo Law, we know that in some cases motorcycle drivers are not fully aware of the legal requirements placed on them to ensure the safety of a passenger riding pillion on their motorcycle. They are responsible for making sure that you are provided with a helmet that meets British standards and a secure seating position. Learner drivers also may not carry pillion passengers.
Even if the driver was at fault you may still be able to pursue a claim against the motorcyclist’s insurance company.
What we do
While you move on from your accident and focus on your recovery, at Vélo Law can take on the responsibility of establishing who your claim should be brought against. And more importantly ensure that you have the support you need now and in the future.
