NEWS - Motorcyclist seeks criminal injury compensation

Make an enquiry:

A motorcyclist who was involved in a collision with a youngster allegedly playing chicken, is seeking compensation from the CICA - 1st January 2007

The young pedestrian was killed as he attempted to run in front of the motorcycle whilst playing a game.

He misjudged the speed of the vehicle and was struck with some force. The motorcyclist quite understandably wishes to seek road accident compensation.

He motorist was cleared of any blame but suffered serious injuries including a punctured lung, broken ribs and a shoulder injury.

His solicitors have decided to attempt claiming damages from the CICA who deal with compensation for victims of violent crime.

They argue that the young pedestrian was effectively committing a crime by endangering the lives of other road users as a result of his alleged actions. If the CICA agree to compensate the motorist this will be a unique and unprecedented decision.
