Back to postWhat Are The Main Types Of Road Traffic Accidents? [Ireland]
Posted in [Blog Personal Injury Litigation ] on Monday, December 12th, 2022
A road traffic accident is a collision involving any type of road user, be that a car, bus, truck, pedestrian or bike.
In Ireland, road traffic accidents are, unfortunately, a daily occurrence. Some are more serious than others but all cause damage, upset or inconvenience of some sort.
The most frequent type of road accident is a rear-end collision. Rear-end collisions occur when one car drives or rolls into the back of another car. These collisions can cause personal injuries, including whiplash. Whiplash from an accident that is not your fault can lead to a personal injuries compensation claim.

* In contentious business, a Solicitor may not calculate fees or other charges as a percentage or proportion of any award or settlement. Many Personal Injury Solicitors portray themselves as “no win no fee Solicitors Cork” or “no win no fee Solicitors Dublin”. This term can be misleading and it is essential that you discuss fees with the Medical Negligence Solicitor you ultimately choose. At Cantillons Solicitors, we are entirely transparent
