Understanding the Civil Liability Act
The Civil Liability Act, most recently updated in 2018, brought substantial changes to personal injury law in the UK, specifically affecting road traffic accident claims. The Act aimed to streamline the claims process and adjust compensation levels for certain types of injuries.
Changes in Road Traffic Accident Claims
One of the key changes brought by the Act is the introduction of a fixed tariff for whiplash injuries and an alteration in the small claims track limit for road traffic accidents. This shift has crucial implications for the compensation claimable in such incidents.
Impact on Vulnerable Road Users
Vulnerable road users, such as cyclists, pedestrians, and motorcyclists, often face a higher risk in traffic accidents. The changes introduced by the Civil Liability Act, particularly in the small claims limit, may affect these users more profoundly, especially in terms of recovering legal costs for lower-value claims.
