Car Passenger Claims

If you travel as a passenger in a motor vehicle, be aware from the outset that you have no control over your own destiny. It is the driver who has sole control, and he or she has a duty of care and responsibility towards you. The driver also has a legal duty to see that the vehicle is safe to be on the road, even if he or she is not the owner.
When a passenger is injured in a motor vehicle accident, and the driver of the car in which the passenger is travelling is at fault, the passenger has a legal right to file a claim against the driver’s insurance provider. Such claims are seldom straightforward, so you need expert help and advice.
Macks Solicitors’ specialist personal injuries team can advise you. Call them on Freephone 0800 294 6875 for a friendly one-to-one interview to establish the details of your case.
Nowadays, it is common for people to share lifts from home to work, and sadly many passenger injuries are sustained during these routine journeys. But if you are injured,
no matter if the driver in question is a close personal friend, you have every right to be compensated for distress, pain and financial loss. Don’t feel guilty about presenting a claim.
