Uninsured Road Traffic Accident Claims

Manchester has one of the highest incidents of uninsured drivers in the UK.

Latest figures show that Greater Manchester has one of the highest proportions of uninsured drivers in the UK, beaten only by London and Merseyside.  10% of those driving in Greater Manchester were not insured to do so.  West Yorkshire and West Midlands were also high in the uninsured driver league table.

According to the Motor Insurers Bureau (MIB) a staggering 50% of all vehicles registered in the BD3 postcode in Bradford West Yorkshire were uninsured.

Overall about 1.7 million motorists drove whilst being uninsured last year.

Solicitors at the Manchester office of MPH all too often have to deal with the unfortunate consequences when uninsured drivers have RTAs with members of the public.  The MIB’s scheme is in place to help compensate drivers who are in accidents with those who do not have insurance.

The MIB scheme is complex and needs Solicitors with specialist knowledge who are well used to dealing with it to ensure that the injured party gets the maximum compensation they deserve.

If you think you have been involved in a road traffic accident with an uninsured driver then you should contact our specialist team of Manchester Solicitors at MPH who deal regularly with this type of claim.
