WHAT CAN I CLAIM FOR A SCOOTER ACCIDENT?
Find out everything you could claim for after a scooter accident in the UK — from injury compensation to scooter repairs. My Scooter Claim explains it all.
YOU MAY BE ENTITLED TO MORE THAN YOU THINK
Many scooter riders who are involved in accidents underestimate the full scope of what they can claim for. A scooter accident claim is not just about compensation for physical injuries — it covers a wide range of financial losses and non-financial impacts on your life.
PHYSICAL INJURIES
Compensation for physical injuries is calculated using established guidelines based on the nature and severity of the injury. Common injuries claimed for include:
- Head and brain injuries
- Facial injuries and scarring
- Neck and whiplash injuries
- Shoulder and collarbone fractures
- Wrist, arm, and hand injuries
- Knee, leg, and ankle injuries
- Spinal injuries
- Road rash and soft tissue damage
PSYCHOLOGICAL INJURIES
The mental and emotional impact of a scooter accident is just as valid as the physical. Claims can include compensation for:
- Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD)
- Anxiety and depression
- Loss of confidence on the road
- Sleep disturbance
FINANCIAL LOSSES (SPECIAL DAMAGES)
- Lost earnings — including future earnings if your injuries are long-term
- Medical and prescription costs
- Physiotherapy and rehabilitation fees
- Scooter repair or replacement (up to full market value)
- Riding equipment and clothing damaged in the accident
- Travel costs to medical appointments
- Care costs if you required assistance during recovery
