What Is Whiplash?
Whiplash commonly occurs after a vehicular collision, mostly when a rear end shunt has occurred. The head and neck are rapidly whipped forwards then pulled backwards in a quick, jerking motion. This causes the muscles, soft tissues and bone within the neck to become hyperextended and then hyperflexed in rapid succession. Common symptoms of whiplash include: pain in the neck and back, headache, stiffness, dizziness and headaches.
When Can I Claim?
Whenever you are suffering from the symptoms of whiplash, and the collision was not your fault, you will be able to make a whiplash injury claim against the party who caused you the injury. They will have to compensate you for the symptoms you have suffered and the financial losses you have incurred as a result of their negligent driving. Your claim is most likely to be successful if your symptoms are severe. Whatever your symptoms, make sure you visit a doctor before you think about making a claim. Your health should always be the top priority. After you have taken care of this the next step should be to enter a claim. You have up to two years from the accident date to enter a personal injury claim but the sooner the better. Your case will be strongest if all the evidence of your symptoms is collected as soon as possible after the accident has occurred.
