fault - usually a road traffic accident in a car.
Whiplash
injuries can be cause extreme discomfort and the pain and
suffering can last for up to six months. The amount of whiplash
injury compensation payable depends on various factors and
no two claims are the same. When awarding whiplash injury

passenger in a friend's car - your whiplash injury compensation
claim is made against an insurance company, not your friend.
