Is a motorcyclist who was involved in a collision with another motor vehicle aggravated her psychological condition?
British Columbia, Canada
The following excerpt is from Griffioen v. Arnold, 2017 BCSC 490 (CanLII):
The medical evidence suggests that other than some minor soft tissue injuries, the plaintiff aggravated her psychological condition and that her recovery suffered a setback. I find that any injuries from the second accident are indivisible from the injuries she received in the first accident and cannot be separated from the accident at issue in this action. In Estable v. New, 2011 BCSC 1556 at paras. 54 and 55, Gropper J. stated:
