Personal injury solicitor Roger Henderson was recently invited to give a legal talk to the Devon Advanced Motorcyclists group in Exeter. Roger shared his knowledge and experience regarding personal injury claims arising from motorcycle collisions. Nationally, motorcyclists represent approximately just 1% of all road users, yet sadly they account for 25% of all fatalities.
Roger said “It was lovely to meet the Devon Advanced Motorcyclists group and to share some legal and road safety knowledge with them. As a road safety members group they are all about promoting safe and enjoyable motorcycling”.
Working with Road Safety Stakeholders.
Over the years, Roger has worked alongside a wide range of road safety stakeholders, including Learn 2 Live, and previously served for many years as a Trustee of The Honest Truth charity, supporting initiatives aimed at reducing deaths and serious injuries on the roads.
Professional Memberships.
In addition to his new role as President of Plymouth Advanced Motorists, Roger is an active member of several professional bodies, including the Association of Personal Injury Lawyers (APIL), the Institute of Advanced Motorists (IAM) and the Association of Child Abuse Lawyers.
"I had a really positive experience with Rundlewalker. Roger was extremely knowledgeable and empathetic to my case. He kept me updated at every stage of the process and ensured I knew exactly what the next steps were. He was friendly and approachable and only ever a phone call away. I really appreciated his high level of professionalism, which all helped in achieving a successful outcome. Highly recommended." M.P.
"We can't thank you, Roger, enough for all of your hard work during the process of the claim. You have been brilliant and kept us informed throughout which we both really appreciate, you have explained every step in a way that we could understand with ease, having had no experience in such a claim before.” Mrs N.
Vision Zero’s ambition is to cut road deaths and serious injuries to zero by 2040 - and to reduce current numbers by 50% by 2030.
In 2024, 57 people were killed and 614 seriously injured* on Devon and Cornwall's roads. That number MUST come down. While the region is one of the safest when it comes to road safety, we believe that any death or serious injury is too many.
