Accidents caused solely as a consequence of icy conditions are largely unlikely to be successful when brought as a no win no fee claim, or any civil claim for that matter. If personal injury has occurred because another party has been negligent, however, that may be a different matter.
Cold weather and rising snow-related personal injury accidents
It might have been caused by Global warming, or maybe just as a result of cyclical environmental climate change, but toward the end of the first decade in the 21st Century, winter weather in the UK grew more erratic and, essentially, colder.
November 2010, saw some of the coldest temperatures ever recorded for the month in the UK and by the end of November, almost the entire nation had experienced snowfall, some of it heavy. Roads in the north were paralysed and the inevitable snow and ice-related accidents began to occur.
Unfortunately for many, the usual slips and trips on icy pavements were very often not compensable because the legal arguments around accident forseeability usually meant that councils were able to argue that members of the public who chose to walk on an obviously snow or ice covered path did so at their own risk and should take responsibility for their own safety.
However, if a pedestrian was injured in a car accident in which a driver had been on travelling on an icy road, perhaps without appropriate tyres on the vehicle or at a speed which could be considered dangerous when the road conditions were taken into account, then it is likely that the injured party would have been able to make a successful no win, no fee claim.
