Lorry and three car accident m25 - timmi
A foreign lorry pushed us from the rear and we were then hit by two cars before hitting the central reservation. The lorry was foreign and our legal insurance legal dept have warned us that the registration number of the lorry is not correct and we may not be able to claim for a broken collar bone and excesses etc. all other details were obtained and the lorry drivers insurance co is world wide. Can you help?

Your insurance company should be looking after you and aware of this:

Motor Insurance Bureau

If you have unfortunately been involved in an accident, where, the third party driver is either not insured, a foreign driver or has left the scene of an accident without there being an opportunity to obtain any contact details, rest assured not all is lost.

You may be able to make a claim to the Motors Insurers’ Bureau (MIB). The MIB are a non-profit-making company set up by motor insurers, who enter into agreements with the UK Government in order to compensate victims of motor accidents.

There is a claim form on the MID web site

If two other cars hit you as well they are also liable for damages?
