Have you been injured in a road accident caused by an uninsured or unknown driver? After the trauma of a road accident, to find out the person who caused your accident is not insured can come as unwanted news.

Equally if the person who was driving the responsible vehicle does not stop and you were unable to record their registration number, you may feel there is little point in contacting a solicitor. However, it is still possible to start a claim in each of these situations.

Although you cannot claim against the third party (the uninsured or untraced driver) in the usual way, you may seek compensation from the Motor Insurer’s Bureau (MIB), an organisation set up by participating insurers in England and Wales to compensate people in these types of situation.

You may have suffered anything from bruises to broken bones, whiplash, shock, or something more serious. Your injury may have required you to take time off work, affecting your income and standard of living.
