\"\"Cigarettes are often derided for being bad for your health and I always thought lung cancer was the biggest risk to your health as a consequence of smoking. However, Mr Andi Susanto certainly got more than he bargained for when the cigarette he was smoking exploded<\/strong>, taking out six of his teeth.<\/p>\n

\u00a0According to the BBC, Mr Susanto, an Indonesian man was riding a motorcycle when the cigarette exploded in his mouth. The makers of the cigarette, a company called PT Nojorono Tobacco, have offered him compensation for his injuries<\/a> and he accepted a payment of £5 million rupiah and all his medical costs from them.<\/p>\n

£5 million rupiah sounds like a lot doesn\u2019t it? Well actually it\u2019s a mere £335! That is a shockingly low figure given the gravity of Mr Susanto\u2019s injuries. If he were in the UK and suffered such an injury then he would be entitled to a much higher level of compensation<\/strong>. According to the Judicial Studies Board guidelines, he could have been entitled to up to £15,000 compensation for the loss of several teeth.
\n<\/p>\n

Police are investigating the cause of the cigarette blast but, perhaps unsurprisingly, Mr Susanto has now decided to quit smoking following the incident. A spokesman for Clas Mild cigarettes, the brand Mr Susanto was smoking at the time of the accident, insisted that there were no plans in place to recall the product.<\/p>\n

That Mr Susanto accepted such a small sum shows the importance of having a solicitor to run your case. A solicitor will ensure that you get the correct amount of compensation relative to your injuries and, if instructed under a no win no fee<\/a> agreement, can ensure that you get your personal injury compensation<\/a> in its entirety<\/strong>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
