Driver or passenger in a car accident?


Drivers or passengers of vehicles involved in accidents through no fault of your own can claim compensation from the insurance company of the person or driver responsible for the accident.


A driver sustained a crush injury to his head, a whiplash injury to the left side of his neck, bruising to the left knee and mild psychological symptoms as a result of a road traffic accident. It was deemed that he had suffered an advancement of degenerative changes by 5-6 years and achieved a compensation award of £6000 in settlement of his claim for personal injury and miscellaneous expenses.
