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 established by the Motor Accident Insurance Act 1994. CTP is a fault-based scheme: compensation is generally available to people injured through another road user’s negligence, rather than for every injury regardless of how it happened. The Act sets out the steps a claim follows — including the pre-court procedures parties must complete before a matter can go to trial. The published data shows most claims resolve by negotiation under that process; the smaller number that proceed to a judgment typically take several years from the crash to a decision.
