Question juridique clé
Whether the insurer had to continue accident insurance benefits after 30 April 2001.
Solution extraite
No; the required adequate causal link between the accident and the continuing complaints was not established.
Motifs extraits
The medical record showed a HWS distortion, but by the cut-off date there were no longer objectively proven organic accident sequelae. Under the whiplash jurisprudence, the accident was only medium in the middle range and only two adequacy criteria were met, insufficient to found liability.
