Automobile Accident Q&A
What injuries most often occur during an automobile accident?
Your head and neck are especially vulnerable during an automobile accident. However, auto accidents cause many potentially serious injuries, including:
- Whiplash
- Concussion
- Lower back injuries
- Injured knees
- Internal injuries
- Fractures
You may also develop widespread musculoskeletal pain even if you don’t have a specific injury.
What should I know about delayed symptoms?
You might not have an obvious injury, but you should still see a doctor as soon as possible for two important reasons.
First, you may have delayed symptoms. As a result, you may return to your normal activities with an unknown injury, yet continuing to stay active puts you at risk for further damage. Delayed symptoms are common following a concussion, whiplash, and back injuries.
The second reason you need to get a thorough exam is because you need to document your accident for insurance and workers' compensation purposes.
Does workers’ compensation cover automobile accident injuries?
Workers’ compensation covers your medical and rehabilitation expenses when your automobile accident occurs in the course of your normal job duties.

- Making deliveries for the company
