What Is a Passenger Injury Claim?

A passenger injury claim is a type of personal injury claim made when someone is injured while riding in a vehicle involved in a crash. Since passengers are rarely at fault, these are typically strong claims.

You can still make a claim even if:

  • The driver at fault is someone you know
  • You were in a taxi, bus, or public transport
  • The accident involved more than one vehicle
  • You don't have car insurance yourself

The claim is made against the driver's insurance company, not the driver personally.

Common injuries include:

  • Whiplash and soft tissue damage
  • Head injuries or concussions
  • Back and neck pain
  • Broken bones
  • Anxiety or psychological trauma

Even if symptoms appear later, it’s important to seek medical attention and speak to a solicitor.

What You Can Claim For

  • Pain and suffering
  • Medical treatment
  • Time off work or lost earnings
  • Transport or travel costs
  • Ongoing rehab or care
  • Support for emotional or psychological harm
