If you're thinking about seeking compensation for a whiplash injury then read our helpful guide to making a whiplash claim...

The roads and motorways of the UK are straining to cope with the amount of traffic that relentlessly drives on the tarmac each and everyday. Cities and towns become gridlocked every rush hour.

It's no secret that with more cars on our roads then chances of a road traffic accident happening becomes greater.

Last year there was over 136,000 road traffic casualties of all severities in the UK. The number of people seriously injured due to a road accident is almost 30,000 - similar to 2022's numbers according to Government figures.

If you've been involved in a road traffic accident, whether as a driver, passenger or pedestrian then there is a good chance that you may be suffering from symptoms of whiplash.

Symptoms of a whiplsh injury

Most whiplash victims claim to suffer from pain around the neck, shoulders or back regions of the body.

The pain can be mild at first and quickly develops into more serious and severe pain sometimes leaving a person immobile.

Seek professional medical advice asap

In every road accident make sure the correct authorities have been called.

Inform the Police in every case and if anyone has suffered an injury call an Ambulance and get it checked out.

It's not uncommon for whiplash to take effect a few days after the road accident has happened.
