Negligence on the road can lead to deadly car accidents. In recent years, traffic fatalities in Ontario reached a historic high. Hundreds of innocent, law-abiding community members lost their lives because other drivers failed to consider the potentially dangerous consequences of their wrongful actions behind the wheel.
Car accidents can be fatal. They can also cause unsuspecting road users– including drivers, passengers, cyclists, motorcycle riders, pedestrians, and others– to sustain severe, debilitating injuries. In the blink of an eye, the course of a person’s entire life can be radically and permanently altered, all because of another person’s poor decisions and illegal conduct.Â
Depending on the severity of the injuries they have sustained, car accident survivors may find themselves facing persistent and chronic pain, overwhelming emotional and psychological distress, and financial instability. Sustaining injuries in a car accident often involves lengthy periods of hospitalization, intensive physical rehabilitation, dramatic changes to one’s lifestyle, and other necessary expenses that can quickly become overwhelmingly costly.Â
Injured car accident survivors often find it difficult to afford both their regular costs of living in addition to the essential costs of their medical care and treatments. This is especially true for injured car crash survivors who are unable to continue carrying out the duties of their jobs as a result of the injuries they sustained. As time passes and bills continue to accumulate, financial stresses combined with the often-isolating and demoralizing process of physical recovery can cause injured car accident survivors to develop destabilizing mental health issues.Â
All automobile insurance policies in the province are required to provide coverage in accordance with the Statutory Accident Benefits Schedule (SABS). Among other forms of coverage, the SABS mandates that all automobile insurance policies include access to no-fault accident benefits. That means that, even if a driver’s own errors or wrongdoings behind the wheel contributed to the circumstances that caused the collision to occur, if they were injured in the crash, they should be entitled to receive compensation for certain injury-related expenses. These often include:
- Medical expenses
- Attendant careÂ
- PhysiotherapyÂ
- Mobility aids, assistive medical equipment
- Prescriptions
- Home modifications to accommodate newly acquired disabilitiesÂ
- Ambulance services
- Mileage expenses to and from medical appointments
- Housekeeping services
- And possibly moreÂ
However, even after receiving accident benefits from their insurance providers, injured car crash victims often find themselves struggling to keep up with all of the costs they have incurred, especially if the injuries they sustained were permanent and catastrophic in nature.Â

car accident FAQs
Here are some commonly asked questions for car accident claims
How soon after an accident can I start receiving loss of income benefits?
Loss of income benefits are typically paid to injured victims of motor vehicle accidents once their claim has been approved by their auto insurance provider. To receive these benefits, you may be required to provide your insurer with documentation from your employer, physicians, and other medical experts stating that your injuries prevent you from working. You will not be granted loss of income benefits for any wages lost during the first 7 days after the injury-causing collision, however you may be eligible to claim lost income for missed working days after that time limitation has elapsed.
What happens if my injuries meet the threshold of catastrophic impairment?
If your injuries meet the threshold of catastrophic impairment, you may be entitled to additional benefits such as increased medical and rehabilitation benefits, attendant care benefits, and housekeeping and home maintenance benefits.
Do my family members have the right to sue the at-fault driver?
Close family members of a person who has been injured or killed in a motor vehicle accident may be able to sue the at-fault driver for their own losses such as loss of care, guidance, and companionship.
How much money can I receive to cover lost wages before and after trial?
The amount of income replacement benefits you can receive will depend on your pre-accident income, but typically these benefits can cover up to 70% of your gross income before the accident, up to a maximum of $400 per week. If you pursue a civil claim against the at-fault driver whose negligence caused your collision, you may be able to recover 100% of your gross income loss and earning capacity after the trial.
