Application for accident benefits dismissed as injuries fell within the Minor Injury Guideline.
The Applicant sought statutory accident benefits following a motor vehicle accident, claiming physical and psychological impairments that fell outside the Minor Injury Guideline (MIG).
The Licence Appeal Tribunal found that the Applicant failed to meet her burden of proving her injuries warranted treatment beyond the $3,500 MIG cap.
The Tribunal preferred the respondent's medical evidence, noting symptom magnification and a lack of validity testing in the applicant's psychological assessment.
All claims for medical benefits, assessments, interest, and an award were dismissed.
