What happens after a crash like this

In Queensland, injuries from a motor vehicle crash are dealt with under the compulsory third-party (CTP) insurance scheme set up by the Motor Accident Insurance Act 1994, rather than usually through a court case. The published data shows the overwhelming majority of these claims are resolved by negotiation; the contested ones that reach a judgment take a median of around 4.6 years from the crash to a decision.

You can explore the Queensland motor-accident claims data — how claims resolve and what the courts have awarded — in the Roche Legal Quantum database.
