If I have a car accident & no other car was involved but I am injured can I sue myself?

ach

No, because only third parties can claim for personal injury, not the policy holder. You can only claim for accidental damage to your vehicle, assuming you have comprehensive cover of course.

sara c

is it worth doing ,,, i mean do u make enough money???

jetcleo25

You could claim for injuries from your insurance i'd guess

wolfram_wert

Probably , if you were stupid.

This is an odd question but why would you like to sue yourself? You would have to be weird to sue yourself but how would you give yourself money?

Roz M

The best way to sue yourself would be if you owned a company, sold the car to yourself for company use, then sued your own company for compensation. lol

If you have fully comprehensive insurance you should be able to make a claim in respect of your injuries.

Uchihaitachi345

why would you do that? That is silly lol

Prince Janus

My advice: avoid the whole situation but making sure to only crash into other cars. :P

You can file suit against your insurance company but they'll cancell you if you do

Broker Man

Simply answer is No!. You can only claim against the negligent party - which in this case is yourself. The only other option you may have is to read your policy as there could be an extension of cover to dealing with injuries to the driver and passengers. However this is usually restrictive to loss of limbs, eyesight etc. This only relates to insurance polices in the UK, unless other countries also have this add-on.

sounds if you've already had a severe blow to the head

Strange that people thing you can sue yourself !
Check you car insurance policies people the only thing that is never covered on a motor insurance policy is the policy holder, if you cause yourself injury it's your business and the insurance company will simply laugh at your efforts if you try to claim against yourself.
Good question though.

No, you would use your insurance coverage to cover some of your medical expenses.

c.j.davies

Claim off your insurance

Padders

To the best of my knowledge, you can't sue yourself. But you can still file an insurance claim with your auto insurer.

If you had an accident and reported to your insurance company, they should cover your medical expenses. Depending on your policy. If you didn't report the accident, or you only have liability on the other driver, than NO.

fozmonkey

Your policy will only cover you for injury to third parties and damage to their property. If you are fully comp, it will cover you for accidental damage to your property aswell, but not personal injury. You need to read your documentation to be sure, but when I had an accident (bike) this year, they would not compensate me for injury or loss of earnings!!!

skcs69

Yes, but only if you are a lawyer.

nomadic searcher

Many States require personal injury protection insurance (PIP), If you have this you are covered for personal injury caused by your auto.
Hope this helps.

roady42

You might have trouble finding a lawyer to do that.

SubJ

U cannot sue urself. Law requires two different persons to do so, may be one of them is only a legal person, like a corporation.

regerugged

No, you cannot make a bodily injury liability claim under your own liability insurance. You would have to read your own policy for the exclusionary language.

If you have medical payments coverage, your own auto insurance company will have to pay medical bills.

bubbles_grandpa

If you have full coverage, you can file on your own car insurance. BUT,,,, you run the risk of increased premiums or getting cancelled.

oadbywonder

Why not, you sound daft enough

Sonu Raja

First of all check the terms & conditions of your policy. U try

CowboyBill

You have no coverage on yourself under your liability policy. (read it).
Idiot.

Chris

NO, you can't. I hope you were just kidding.

If you have comprehensive insurance, you will be able to claim for your injuries, but you will lose your no claims bonus, unless you have it protected.

If you have third party insurance only, then I don't think you will be covered.
