Why Us
Rin Kim Intro 1.jpg

CTP Claims For Cyclists

You do not need to own a car or have insurance to make a claim. Where a registered vehicle caused or contributed to your injuries, a claim may be made to its Compulsory Third Party (CTP) insurer.

We’ll confirm which insurer is responsible & prepare your claim from there.

When Fault Is Disputed

Drivers & insurers may claim you were riding too fast, in a blind spot or without lights. Helmet camera, dashcam & CCTV footage can help show what happened.

We will review the evidence & respond to the insurer on your behalf.

Injuries Can Affect More Than Your Health

Cyclists have little protection in a crash, so injuries are often serious & can affect your ability to work, ride & manage daily tasks.

We’ll assess how your injuries affect your life, now & in the future.

Time Limits Matter

Strict notice deadlines apply & key evidence can be lost if it is not collected quickly.

Request Your Free Case Review, & a senior lawyer will reach you within 24 hours to help you secure the evidence you need.

Key Things To Know About Bicycle Accident Claims

01

Drivers Must Look Out For Cyclists

Drivers must take reasonable care to avoid hitting cyclists, including when turning, opening doors or changing lanes.

A driver’s failure to look out for you can help show who was at fault. We’ll weigh up the evidence & tell you how your position looks.

02

Keep Your Bike & Helmet

Your damaged bike, helmet & clothing can help show how the crash happened.

Try not to repair or throw anything away yet. We’ll let you know what to keep & when it’s safe to fix your bike.

03

CCTV & Camera Footage Can Be Lost

Footage from traffic cameras, nearby shops & other riders’ helmet cameras is often deleted or recorded over within days or weeks.

It can show exactly how a driver turned, passed or opened a door. We’ll move quickly to find & request it while it’s still available.

04

Time Limits Matter

Bicycle accident claims involve strict deadlines & procedural requirements. Missing them can put a claim at risk.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes, you may be able to claim if the driver caused or contributed to the accident. The claim is generally made to the vehicle’s CTP insurer, not the driver personally.

You may still be able to claim, but not wearing a helmet may reduce your compensation, particularly for head injuries.

You may still have a claim. Fault is decided by the evidence, so we will review what happened & respond to the insurer on your behalf.

You may still be able to claim through the Nominal Defendant, which handles claims involving unidentified & uninsured vehicles.

Yes, but not through CTP, which covers personal injuries only. Damage to your bike, helmet & gear is usually claimed through the at-fault driver’s comprehensive or third party property insurance, or from the driver directly if they have none.

Seek medical attention, report the accident & keep records of your treatment, expenses & symptoms. If you can, photograph the scene & your bike, get witness details & keep any camera footage. These can help show what happened & support a claim.

You can make a claim without a lawyer, but legal support is particularly useful where fault is disputed, injuries are serious or the driver cannot be identified.

Yes. Rin Kim Law provides No Win, No Fee services for eligible bicycle accident claims. We’ll explain the terms & eligibility before you decide whether to proceed.
