WAD – Whiplash Associated Disorder IV
WAD IV commonly results in a fracture or dislocation of the neck. WAD injuries are generally the result of the head snapping forward and then back again, especially in rear-end motor vehicle accidents. WAD injuries can be caused by any motion similar to a rear-end motor vehicle accident, where your neck experiences a rapid forward and backward motion.
Potential Settlement Value
In 1993, the Court in Nagami v Larsen, 1993 CanLII 1268 (BC SC) awarded the injured person $85,000 for injuries that included WAD IV.
