Car Accidents Caused by Family Members
If you have been involved in a car accident which was caused by a member of your family, you may still claim compensation for any injuries you have suffered. Providing your family member has insurance, which they are legally required to do so, any claim for compensation made by yourself would be dealt with by this insurance company.
Many people injured in car accidents caused by a family member do not make a personal injury claim. This is usually because they may feel awkward because it is a family member. However, it is important to remember that any car accident claim is made against the insurance company, not your family member directly. The whole purpose of having car insurance is to be able to compensate others for any loss or injuries caused by the driver.
