Traffic lights are natural accident hotspots despite the fact they’re there to prevent accidents and keep the flow of traffic moving as easily as possible. But most people in the UK live such busy lives that we’re constantly rushing around, and we’re all too tempted to ‘amber gamble’ or jump a just turned red light when driving; or cross a crossing when the lights are not in our favour. Traffic suddenly slowing is also a huge cause of accidents too.

For most firms, offering a 100% compensation is now a thing of the past.

So what happens if you don’t agree with their opinion? What options do you have?

So if the cut itself only hurt for a few days, what about the fact you are left with a huge scar? Can this be claimed for?
