You are entitled to accident benefits
If you are injured in a motorcycle accident, regardless of fault, you are automatically entitled to Statutory Accident Benefits, as set out by law in Ontario. These benefits can help with medical expenses, physical therapy, and more. Thomson Rogers can help get that process started and navigate the insurance paperwork.
You may also sue
In cases where the motorcyclist is not at fault, he or she can sue the driver who is responsible for the accident. This is called a ‘tort’ claim and is separate from the Statutory Accident Benefits. If the other driver caused or even contributed, in part, to the cause of the accident, the motorcyclist can sue. Damages can include the cost of long-term care, pain and suffering, lost income from missing work, and more.
