Mrs B was a passenger in a car travelling on a country road
Case Studies » Road & Traffic Accidents
Mrs B was a passenger in a car travelling on a country road, when a vehicle travelling at speed on the wrong side of the road caused a head on collision. Mrs B suffered a broken leg and a broken collarbone. She was off work for 3 months. The police prosecuted the other driver. Mrs B was awarded £10,500 for her injuries, and £4,500 for her loss of earnings, a total of £15,000. This is an example of a case where liability for the accident was fairly easy to establish.
