How a DriveLaw client recovered full compensation after a hit-and-run, pursued through the Motor Insurers' Bureau.
Being hit by a driver with no insurance — or one who leaves the scene entirely — can feel like a dead end. It isn't. The Motor Insurers' Bureau (MIB) exists precisely to cover situations like this.
Our client was stationary at a junction in Manchester when another vehicle collided with them and left the scene without stopping. No insurance details were exchanged, and the other driver was never identified.
The claim was accepted in full, covering vehicle repair costs and a personal injury award for whiplash sustained in the collision — without ever identifying the other driver.
If you've been hit by an uninsured or untraced driver, you are very likely still entitled to compensation. The process has strict evidence requirements, which is where specialist support makes the difference.
