Were you a driver or passenger of a car that was involved in an accident after 30 May 2021 and you suffered a whiplash injury?
If you were your claim may be subject to the whiplash reforms which came into force on 31 May 2021 if:
You are over 18.
You were injured in a road traffic accident.
The accident occurred on or after 31st May 2021.
You suffered whiplash injuries which are defined as a soft-tissue injury to the neck, back or shoulder, and includes damage to muscles, tendons, or ligaments (i.e. sprains, strains, tears, ruptures, or lesser damage); and damage to soft-tissues associated with muscles, tendons, or ligaments. However, if your main injury is a broken arm/leg, etc or you suffer a non-whiplash injury, then it would not count as a whiplash injury even if you did suffer pain in your neck, back or shoulder.
You were a driver or passenger of a motor vehicle.
Your injuries are worth less than £5,000 and the total value of your claim is less than £10,000.
These reforms will not impact vulnerable road users such as:
A pedestrian (including if you were in a wheelchair or on a mobility scooter)
A cyclist.
A motorcyclist (including if you were a passenger on a motorbike)
The rider of a scooter (as a driver or passenger)
It also means your whiplash injuries will be awarded according to a fixed tariff, unless a Court deems there to be “exceptional circumstances” as follows:
Duration of Injury
Amount (for Whiplash Alone)
Amount (for Whiplash and Minor Psychological Injury)
