Circumstances
With traffic accidents it is often clear what the cause of the accident is, but unfortunately this is not always the case. In order to assess who is liable for the accident, an investigation must be conducted into the circumstances. An official Police report can provide a solution here.
The (criminal) investigation by the police after the accident can also provide assistance.
In your case, it may happen that no report has been drawn up or that no (criminal) investigation has been conducted. It may also happen that this evidence exists, but there is still uncertainty about the cause of the accident. We can help you then too!
We can obtain clarity about what exactly happened in various ways. For example, by carrying out a traffic accident analysis by an expert or by interviewing witnesses (under oath). It is also possible to determine the circumstances of the accident by requesting security images.
Liability in traffic accidents
The other party that caused the traffic accident can be held liable on the basis of Article 6:162 of the Dutch Civil Code and Article 185 of the Road Traffic Act. The following applies:
-
Are you a driver of a motor vehicle and the traffic accident was caused by the driver of another motor vehicle? In that case, if the other party is at fault, your damage must be compensated. You can initiate a so-called 'direct action' by submitting your claim directly to the other party's liability insurer.

Have you, as a non-motorized person, such as a cyclist, pedestrian or skater/rollerblader, etc., been hit by a motorized vehicle? Then look here! â–
