MIB Uninsured and Untraced Driver Injury Claims
A hit-and-run incident, an accident with an uninsured driver or an untraced driver may leave you to feel hopeless. Find out how we can help you get compensated from a hit-and-run accident claim.
Untraced Driver Injury Claims
Got hit by an uninsured or untraced driver? That is not something anyone plans for. It is confusing, you are hurt, your car is a mess and you have no idea who is going to pay for all this. That is where RU1NJURED comes in. We have helped many people to successfully get compensated for uninsured driver claims through the Motor Insurers’ Bureau (MIB). It is not always smooth, but our team makes sure to get what is rightfully yours.
Two types of drivers cause problems in this situation
Uninsured Drivers
These are folks driving around with no valid insurance at all. If you are hit by an uninsured driver, you are left helpless, unless you go through the right legal steps.
Untraced Drivers
These are the drivers who hit you and vanish. Often referred to as hit-and-run cases, maybe you are thinking, can I claim against an uninsured driver who fled? Yes, you can still make a claim. The Motor Insurers' Bureau (MIB) has a special process in place for situations like this.
What Is the Motor Insurers’ Bureau (MIB)?
The Motor Insurers Bureau (MIB) is a non-profit organisation, supported by contributions made by the premiums paid by all insured drivers in England and Wales. Its role is to step in and provide compensation to victims of accidents involving:
- Injuries caused by uninsured drivers
- Injuries caused by am untraced driver
- Injuries caused by foreign drivers
- Injuries caused by stolen vehicles
Hence, if you have been in a road traffic accident and the person at fault cannot be found or has gone missing to be held accountable, the MIB can still help you get justice. Through the uninsured driver claims scheme, you might be able to get compensation.
Claiming for an Accident by a Foreign Motorist
It is possible to face an accident where you might get hit by a foreign driver visiting England or Wales for a short time or even a delivery truck driver from abroad. In such a case, you do not have to chase the motorist’s foreign insurers. There is a system set in place for every foreign driver to ensure the citizens of the UK are not at a disadvantage.
All the foreign drivers are required to have a green card. It is an international document which assists UK based insurance companies to cover minimum motorist insurance of vehicle use when in England and Wales. Therefore, if you get hit by a foreign motorist, you can claim the compensation through the MIB from their UK-based counterparts.
Let our expert MIB claim solicitors handle all the legal stuff to ensure you have a solid case that deserves to be compensated.
Eligibility for Making a Claim Against an Untraced and Uninsured Driver
You can start a claim against an untraced or uninsured driver if the responsible party has no valid insurance or if the driver has disappeared after the incident. Following conditions need to be met:
- The accident was not your fault.
- It happened somewhere in England and Wales.
- You suffered a physical injury, property damage or both due to that accident.
- The driver causing the accident does not have insurance cover or flee the scene after the accident.
