What steps should I take if I was in a quad bike accident in Queensland?
The open nature of a quad bike means that serious injuries are often sustained in a quad bike accident. There are some basic general steps that should be taken if you are injured in a quad bike accident in Queensland:
- The first priority is seeking medical attention for yourself and anyone else injured. If you have sustained an injury from a quad bike accident in Queensland it is important that you seek medical attention and get the appropriate advice and treatment. It is important that you report all symptoms to the Doctor so that they can properly treat you.
- Record The Details make a note of the date, time, place of the accident. Record any details of other people involved in the accident, their name, address, phone number will all be required. If there are witnesses, also take a note of their contact details. If you can take photos of the accident scene, and any damage, that will also be helpful.
- Report the accident – if you were injured on commercial premises, report the accident to the manager and take a note of their details. If it was a private property, ensure the owner knows of the accident.
- Lodge a Notice of Claim with the insurer on the earlier of 1 month from consulting a lawyer or 9 months from the date of accident. A lawyer can help you prepare and lodge this claim form within the right insurer within the necessary time frames.
Lawyers who specialise in personal injury law are familiar with these laws relating to quad bike accidents and can take care of the necessary steps, claim forms, time frames, and gathering evidence, which allows you to then focus on your recovery and rehabilitation. We recommend speaking with a lawyer to fully understand your rights and obligations specific to your circumstances.
