Application for accident benefits dismissed; injuries fell within the Minor Injury Guideline and non-earner benefits denied.
The applicant was injured in a motor vehicle accident and sought statutory accident benefits, including non-earner benefits and various treatment plans.
The respondent denied the benefits on the basis that the applicant's injuries fell within the Minor Injury Guideline (MIG).
The Licence Appeal Tribunal found that the applicant failed to provide sufficient objective medical evidence to prove that she suffered from chronic pain or psychological impairments warranting removal from the MIG.
The Tribunal also dismissed the claim for non-earner benefits, finding that the applicant continued to work and engage in her pre-accident activities, and therefore did not suffer a complete inability to carry on a normal life.
The application was dismissed in its entirety.
