Application for non-earner and medical benefits dismissed as applicant failed to prove accident-related impairments.
The applicant sought statutory accident benefits, including non-earner benefits and medical benefits for psychological services, following a minor rear-end motor vehicle accident.
The Licence Appeal Tribunal dismissed the application, finding that the applicant failed to prove a complete inability to carry on a normal life.
The Tribunal preferred the respondent's independent medical examination reports over the applicant's expert reports, noting that the applicant's experts relied heavily on self-reporting which was contradicted by the applicant's own prior testimony and employment records indicating he was laid off due to a shortage of work rather than disability.
