Negligence

Bike riders are vulnerable road users. It is the negligent action of other road users — usually motor vehicle drivers who do not see motorcyclists — that is usually to blame for motor bike accidents. The other main category of accidents results from defects in the highway including faulty road design, potholes, poor maintenance, excessive gravel and obstructions which may enable a motorcycle accident compensation claim against the responsible highway authority.
