Our road traffic accident (RTA) injury claims lawyers secured a compensation settlement for a motorcyclist who was injured when he was hit by a van. Our client was crossing a road junction on his motorbike when the defendant’s van, which was travelling at speed from his right side, collided with him. He suffered a broken humerus (upper arm bone), fractured ribs and bruising to his thigh and hips. He was unable to work for two months immediately following the accident and then for a further two weeks following surgery. He was also unable to use his motorcycle until he had recovered from an operation on his humerus. His injuries have permanently affected his ability to pursue his former leisure activities of martial arts and lifting weights at the gym.
