If you are unfortunate enough to be involved in a road traffic accident, which was not your fault, then you may be entitled to make a personal injury compensation claim.
If you are a passenger in a vehicle; which is involved in a collision, your personal injury compensation claim would be made against the insurance company of the person responsible for the accident, whether that is the driver of the vehicle you were travelling in or a third party driver (or both if necessary).
If you are a pedestrian, a motorcyclist, a pedal cyclist or a driver, your personal injury compensation claim would be made against the insurance company of the person driving the vehicle which collided with you.
You may also be able to make a claim for compensation if you are involved in a road accident abroad or on holiday.
Perhaps, the most common type of injury resulting from a road accident is whiplash although many other different injuries are possible.
