The UK's legal system recognizes the vulnerability of pedestrians and cyclists in road accidents and ensures that they are not left to bear the consequences alone. Regardless of whether the accident resulted from the negligence of a motorist, cyclist, or even another pedestrian, victims are entitled to file a claim for compensation to seek justice and support their recovery.
Furthermore, it is crucial to remember that there are time limits for filing a pedestrian compensation claim in the UK. Generally, victims have three years from the date of the accident to initiate legal proceedings. However, certain exceptions exist in cases involving minors or individuals suffering from mental incapacitation.
