For most road accidents, it’s usually easy to establish who is at fault. If someone goes in to the back of you or pulls out from a side road in to you, they’re the one who should be accepting the blame.

But sometimes there are circumstances where it can be hard to show exactly who is to blame. A lot of it is down to what version of events people give as to what happened. If you have an honest person who is willing to hold their hands up and accept responsibility for what they’ve done, then great. But what if you don’t?

For the most part, I expect that a delivery driver’s main concern when it comes to an accident is a road accident. With them being on the road so much, the likelihood of being in an accident is of course higher. But what about pothole accidents caused when you are employed as a delivery driver?

We all know that the state of our roads in some areas is extremely poor. And you may end up falling over due to a pothole on a delivery destination. Read on for more advice.

If someone drives in to the back of you, it is highly likely that you will have a successful claim for personal injury compensation. We often refer to rear end collision accidents as ‘no brainers‘ because they are almost guaranteed winners.

If someone has hit you from behind, it usually means that they have failed to stop in time. Whether it is down to driving too fast, not braking quickly or hard enough, or not paying attention in general, it’s normally their fault.

It’s an unpleasant enough experience to be in a car accident – but when the other driver drives off, knowing they’re at fault and attempting to escape liability, it’s infuriating. Perhaps someone has bumped you in the back, and given you a quick cursory wave in apology before driving off. Or perhaps you have been clipped on a roundabout and the other driver sheepishly makes their getaway in the hope you won’t find them.

If this happens to you, what can you do?

No Win, No Fee for Road Accident Claims!

When two lanes become one, accidents can easily occur. There are a lot of lanes on our roads that close in to one lane forcing traffic to merge, and when people are not paying enough attention, or being impatient, they can become road accident hotspots.

So what are the rules of the road when it comes to accidents where traffic merges, and who is at fault?

I often get inspiration for my blogs through recent claims we take on and stories I read in the press. On occasions, the inspiration comes from my own personal experience – and given I do a commute of more than 66 miles a day, I’m almost taken out on the motorways and on roundabouts on a regular basis.

It’s quite concerning sometimes – but as I’m a good driver (in my opinion) I can normally avoid the idiocy of others causing an accident. So let’s look at the changing lanes scenario.

But since the symptoms whiplash don’t normally appear immediately after your accident, sometimes taking days to appear, when should you see your GP?
