I was injured in an accident while riding on the back of a motorcycle. Am I entitled to file a claim for damages?

Yes. In fact, you are entitled to file a claim for compensation no matter who caused the accident. If a passenger vehicle driver caused the collision, you may file a claim against that driver’s insurance company. If the motorcyclist you were riding with caused the accident, you are entitled to file a claim for compensation under the rider’s policy. Remember, the insurance company, not the rider, will pay your claim if you are successful in obtaining compensation.
