\"\"Have you been injured when you were a passenger in a car or on a bus?\u00a0 Good news<\/strong> – you have one of the best chances of a successful claim for compensation<\/a>.\u00a0 <\/p>\n

Passenger injury claims are one of the easiest to assess because it is highly unlikely you were to blame for the accident.\u00a0 Really, unless you pull the handbrake or were severely distracting the driver at the time of the accident, you cannot be at fault for the accident.\u00a0 Say you were the passenger in a car when someone drives into the back of that car, how can you be at fault<\/strong>?\u00a0 You can therefore be compensated for any injuries you get as a result.<\/p>\n

Here are a couple of examples of good passenger claims.\u00a0 You are on a bus which is involved in a crash, the crash is not your fault, you can seek compensation from whoever was at fault, e.g. the bus driver or the third party driver.\u00a0 You pop out to the shops with a friend and someone drives into the rear of your friend\u2019s car whilst you are waiting at traffic lights and you get whiplash, you can claim compensation for this whiplash.
\n
\nThe best way to get the maximum compensation you deserve is to instruct an expert injury lawyer with loads of experience in road traffic accident<\/a> claims.\u00a0 What they will do is take all your information and get the ball rolling on your claim for you.\u00a0 A Claim Notification Form will be submitted online and then the other side will only have 1 business day to acknowledge it and then 15 business days to admit or deny liability.\u00a0 Once this is sorted it\u2019s just a matter of getting medical evidence and settling your claim which shouldn\u2019t take long at all.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s important to know then that if you were a passenger and have been injured you have a great claim for compensation and you are entitled just like everyone else who has been injured is to make a claim.\u00a0 It doesn\u2019t matter than you weren\u2019t driving or that it wasn\u2019t your vehicle that was involved – you can still make a claim from the negligent party\u2019s insurer.\u00a0 Some people are also concerned that they don\u2019t want to be suing a parent or a friend if it was them who caused the accident – you won\u2019t be, you will be dealing with the insurer and it will be the insurer who pays the compensation.<\/p>\n
