What to Do After a Motorcycle Accident

Being involved in a motorcycle accident can be overwhelming. Knowing the steps to take immediately after can protect your safety, rights, and well-being. Here's what to do:

1. Ensure Your Safety First

• Move to a safe location if you're able to do so without causing further injury.

• Turn off your motorcycle to reduce the risk of fire or further damage.

• Stay calm and avoid removing your helmet unless absolutely necessary.

2. Check for Injuries

• Assess yourself and others involved for injuries.

• Call emergency services (999) immediately, even if injuries seem minor.

• Do not attempt to move anyone who appears seriously injured unless they’re in immediate danger.

3. Document the Scene

• Take photos of:

  • The vehicles involved

  • Damage to your motorcycle

  • The surrounding area (road conditions, signs, skid marks, etc.)

  • Any visible injuries

• Gather information from the other party:

  • Name and contact details

  • Insurance provider and policy number

  • Driver’s license and vehicle registration

• Speak to witnesses and ask for their contact information.

4.Contact MCAMS

• Be honest and stick to the facts, but avoid admitting fault until all information has been reviewed.

• In the event of a non fault accident contact MCAMS
