Passenger injury claimsPassengers suffering personal injury on the roadIf you have suffered personal injury in an accident whilst travelling in a vehicle – you will almost certainly be able to claim compensation.
Here we discuss a few situations that might help you decide to make your claim:
Passenger injury claims
The driver of a vehicle has a duty of care to safeguard the wellbeing of any occupants of the vehicle and of course other road users. This duty of care is breached if the driver is negligent in causing an accident.
In such circumstances the passenger will have the right to make an accident claim against the drivers insurance policy for any personal injury suffered. Because the passenger could not have contributed to the accident occurring there cannot be any dispute on liability and the prospects for obtaining compensation are substantial.
If the driver of the vehicle was not to blame but in fact another road user was negligent in causing an accident, then naturally the claim will be re-directed to the other road user. It is the responsible party’s insurance company that ultimately deals with any claim.
