Crashed without another car in sight? Just because no one else was involved doesn’t mean no one else is responsible. Whether you hit a tree, swerved off the road, or collided with a barrier, you may still have a valid claim, and Marley Solicitors is here to help you prove it.
One vehicle – Multiple possible causes
Not all accidents are your fault, even if no other car touched you. Single-vehicle crashes happen for a range of reasons, and many of them can be traced back to someone else’s negligence:
- Swerving to avoid another reckless driver
- Potholes, loose gravel, or poor road maintenance
- Oil spills or debris left on the road
- Fallen branches, missing signage, or broken guardrails
- Malfunctioning vehicle parts, like brakes or steering
- Pedestrians or cyclists behaving unpredictably
- Animals on the road and no warning signs
If you lost control trying to avoid a collision, or your crash was caused by a hazard that shouldn’t have been there, you may be entitled to compensation. It’s not always about impact; it’s about why the crash happened.
Common outcomes of single-vehicle crashes
These types of accidents often result in serious injuries and long-term consequences, such as:
- Whiplash or spinal trauma from sudden deceleration
- Head injuries from hitting the interior of the car
- Fractures, lacerations, and bruising from impact
- PTSD or road anxiety
- Financial stress from vehicle write-offs, medical bills, and lost earnings
Whether you crashed into a tree, hit a bollard, mounted a kerb, or rolled over on a bend, if something outside your control caused it, we’ll help prove it.
How Marley Solicitors makes it easier
We know insurers love to pin blame on drivers in single-vehicle accidents. That’s where we come in. We gather the evidence, challenge their assumptions, and build a case that shows exactly what caused your crash and who’s really responsible for the road accident.
Our promise:
- Free case review: No commitment, just clear advice
- No win, no fee: No upfront costs, no risk
- Focused on real results: Not lowball settlements
You can claim for:
- Physical pain and injury

- Emotional distress and trauma
Just because you were alone doesn’t mean you’re on your own
Single-vehicle accidents are misunderstood and often wrongly dismissed. Don’t let an insurer tell you it’s your fault until we’ve taken a proper look. Whether it’s a road authority, a manufacturer, or a third party who caused the hazard, we’ll help you hold them accountable.
