The applicant sought statutory accident benefits following a 2014 motor vehicle accident, claiming catastrophic impairment due to psychological and physical injuries, as well as attendant care benefits.
The Licence Appeal Tribunal dismissed the application, finding the applicant failed to prove on a balance of probabilities that the accident was a necessary cause of her psychological impairments, noting significant pre-existing conditions and surveillance evidence contradicting her reported limitations.
The Tribunal also found the applicant did not meet the whole person impairment threshold for physical and psychological impairments combined.
Claims for attendant care benefits were denied as the applicant was not catastrophically impaired and failed to prove the expenses were incurred.
