FAQs

I was hurt in the accident. What should I do first?

Your health comes first. Call 999 for emergencies. For urgent advice that isn’t an emergency, call NHS 24 on 111 or see your GP. Some injuries, like whiplash or back pain, can appear hours or days later, so get checked even if you feel fine at first. Keep a record of your symptoms, appointments, medication and any time off work, and keep receipts for related costs.

Is there a time limit for injury claims in Scotland?

Yes. In Scotland, a personal injury action generally has to be raised in court within three years of the accident, or of the date you became aware of the injury and its cause. For children, the three years usually only start at age 16. Other exceptions can apply, and the rules for England and Wales differ, including the whiplash tariff. Don’t leave it late. Get advice early about your own situation.

Personal injury support

I was a passenger. Can I claim?

Passengers are rarely to blame for an accident, so if you were hurt as a passenger you may be able to claim, even if the driver was a friend or family member. Such a claim is normally made against the at-fault driver’s insurance, not against the person themselves. Get any injuries checked, keep a record of your symptoms and costs, and remember the time limits for injury claims.
