Thornhill v Bagas [2017] EWHC 1513 (QB), [2017] All ER (D) 139 (Jun)

The Queen’s Bench Division determined that there would be judgment for the claimant for 100% of the value of the claimant’s claim for damages for personal injuries and other losses arising out of a collision with the defendant. The claimant’s speed had had no causative effect on the force of the impact and his injuries had been solely caused as a result of the defendant’s negligent driving.
