Following a car accident, many Massachusetts residents may experience a number of injuries, including whiplash. Whiplash most commonly happens to people whose stationary vehicle has been rear-ended by another vehicle. The force of such an impact can cause the victim’s upper and lower neck bones to move past their normal range of motion. While the upper neck bones move one way, the lower neck bones move another way, resulting in the victim’s cervical spine becoming S-shaped.

As some Massachusetts drivers may already know, long and exhaustive investigations often follow a traffic accident. For the most part, these investigations are conducted by law enforcement officials, but independent investigators may have cause to probe certain incidents as well. One of the main objectives of these investigations is to determine who, if anyone, was at fault.
