Application for accident benefits dismissed; injuries found to be predominantly minor and subject to MIG limit.
The applicant sought statutory accident benefits following a motor vehicle accident.
The respondent denied benefits, arguing the applicant's injuries fell within the Minor Injury Guideline (MIG).
The applicant claimed a psychological impairment warranted removal from the MIG and sought an income replacement benefit (IRB) and treatment plans.
The Tribunal found the applicant did not meet the burden of proving a psychological impairment or a substantial inability to perform the essential tasks of his employment as an Uber driver.
The Tribunal concluded the applicant's injuries were predominantly minor, subject to the MIG limit, and dismissed the claims for IRB, treatment plans, interest, and an award.
