Applicant's injuries fall within the Minor Injury Guideline; psychological report given little weight.
The applicant was injured in a rear-end motor vehicle collision and sought medical benefits beyond the Minor Injury Guideline (MIG) limit, claiming psychological impairments.
The Tribunal found that the applicant's injuries were predominantly minor and that she failed to prove on a balance of probabilities that she suffered a psychological injury warranting removal from the MIG.
The Tribunal placed little weight on the applicant's psychological report because the test scores indicated minimal depression and anxiety, contradicting the psychologist's diagnosis.
The respondent's request for a $50 repayment due to an alleged overpayment was dismissed as there was no evidence of wilful misrepresentation by the applicant.
