Rear Ended Car Accident

Rear ended in a car accident? Chances are that this has happened to the majority of drivers involved in British Columbia car accidents which is why there are a large number of personal injury lawyers in Vancouver who specialize in injury to the back neck and other spinal trauma including traumatic brain injury and muscular damage (soft tissue) injury like whiplash.

Generally speaking, Vancouver drivers don’t have a very good safety record. They run red lights and stop signs on a regular basis and that doesn’t include crosswalks with people in them!

If you drive a lot in Vancouver, you will eventually get rear ended by another driver and hopefully it won’t be serious enough that you suffer whiplash.

In the more extreme cases, people have suffered very serious injury to the back and neck and have had to endure not only the pain of the injury of being rear ended but also dealing with the insurance company.

The Insurance Corporation of British Columbia (ICBC) who tend to, more often than not to take an extreme adversarial position to the degree that they almost force the injured persons to hire a personal injury lawyer / vehicle accident lawyer just to force them to be fair and reasonable.

Chances are if you’re read ended in a car accident and suffer a back, neck injury or worse that cause you to have some back injury symptoms you may need to have some back pain medicine, back pain treatments, back pain therapy and back rehab.

And if the back pain cause (or other injury symptoms) is related to being rear ended in a British Columbia car accident, you’ll still have to prove that you were / are not at fault!

In the more serious cases, you may suffer a spinal cord injury or a permanent back injury like a traumatic brain injury in which case the brain damage recovery from being rear ended may not be as successful as you may hope.

All the time that this is going on and you’re trying to get better and back to the “old you” and your recovery goes on and on and your expenses like chiropractor bills, physiotherapy, and other rehab costs keep adding more stress onto you and your family, especially if the insurance company has sent you a “denial of claim” letter or is telling you that you have to pay the bills and then submit or sue them for the money back!

More often than not, if you are in a British Columbia car accident and are rear ended, the other driver (the one who hit you) is usually at fault not you!
