Car accident claim against an uninsured driver

Being involved in a car accident is stressful enough without having to worry about whether the other driver is insured. Luckily for motorists involved in car accidents with someone who is not insured, it is possible to make a car accident claim.

In the UK around 1 in 10 motorists drive without car insurance. This adds approximately £30 to everyone else's car insurance premium. The chances of having a road traffic accident with someone who is not insured are therefore much higher than you may imagine. Many people believe that if they have a car accident with someone who is not insured then you cannot make a car accident claim.

Fortunately in the UK provisions have been made so that rightful car accident compensation can be claimed. If you have sustained personal injuries in a car accident then making a car accident claim can help you to move on with your life. Although it may be more complicated to make a claim when the other driver is uninsured it is not impossible.

The Motor Insurers Bureau (MIB) is an industry led organisation set up to compensate victims of accidents involving uninsured or untraced motorists. Whilst it is strongly advised that you use the services of a personal injury solicitor to claim compensation, the MIB can help you to claim damages after a non fault car accident claim.
