It’s that time of the year again!
Bicycles and motorcycles are back on Toronto streets. Unfortunately, this time of the year shows an increase in serious road accidents involving bicycles and motorcycles.
With the addition of bicycle lanes to its streets, the city of Toronto is promoting the use of bicycles and other forms of alternative transportation. In some cases, this has caused confusion amongst motorists that can lead to serious accidents involving life-changing catastrophic injuries.
Whether on a motorcycle or a bicycle, if you have suffered injuries as a result of negligent motorists, you could be entitled to government-regulated accident benefits through your own automotive insurance policy as well as other benefits.
In some personal injury cases, injury victims find it difficult to obtain rehabilitation and compensation for injuries.
The bike accident trial lawyers at Strype Injury Lawyers can help you get results.
In addition to accident benefits and disability benefits, you may be entitled to additional benefits if you are not at fault in your accident. You may have a claim against the driver, known as a tort claim, who was responsible for the accident. We will work closely with you, making sure you understand all of the benefits available to you beyond your insurance.
Unfortunately, there can be a perception that bicycle and motorcycle riders are reckless and that accidents and resulting injuries are inevitable. We will make a thorough case on your behalf, striving to clearly absolving you of liability and demonstrate your short term and long-term need for rehabilitation and compensation.
