The Motor Insurers Bureau (MIB) was set up to compensate the victims of road traffic accidents where the other driver was either uninsured or untraced, i.e. they cannot be identified. It is funded by a compulsory contribution scheme, which involves all insurance companies in England and Wales.
Typically, these types of claim involve another driver who:
- was driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs
- was driving without appropriate insurance
- left the scene of the accident after causing an accident and without exchanging details
When the above occurs, it can be difficult to claim compensation and so in all instances you must report the accident to the Police as soon as you can.
