Traffic Accidents
If you have been involved in a traffic accident, you are entitled to compensation from the liability insurance of the vehicle that caused the accident.
If you suffer bodily injury in a traffic accident, you are entitled to accident compensation. This means that drivers and passengers of all cars are insured. The right to compensation simply exists if an accident occurs. Unfortunately, there is a widespread misconception that people at fault are not entitled to accident compensation for bodily injuries sustained in a traffic accident. That is completely wrong! It does not matter whether you were right or wrong. The driver who was at fault is on equal footing with others involved in the collision.
The liable insurance company must compensate everyone involved in traffic accidents for the following:
- Expenses related to the accident, such as medical costs, ambulance costs, medication costs, physiotherapy costs, etc.
- Loss of income. If people become unable to work due to a traffic accident, they are entitled to receive compensation for lost income from the insurance company after the employer's wage obligation ends, until stability is reached.
- Compensation for suffering.
- Compensation for permanent injury.
- Compensation for permanent disability.
- Legal costs for the most part.
- Other financial losses.

Motorcycle Accidents
Motorcycle riders have the same right to accident compensation as those involved in car accidents. If you are injured in a motorcycle accident, whether you are the driver or a passenger, you are entitled to compensation. It does not matter whether the injured person was right or wrong. It also does not matter whether the accident occurred due to a collision or because the driver fell off the bike or lost control of it due to external factors.
