Pedestrian accidents and TAC claims

Pedestrians who are injured as a result of a motor vehicle accident are entitled to TAC benefits.

Pedestrians can receive TAC benefits and compensation even where:

1. the accident involved a “near miss” – for example, if you have fallen over when trying to avoid a collision with a motor vehicle;
2. the collision occurred in a car park;
3. you had consumed alcohol;
4. you were on a footpath; and/or
5. you were on private property.
