Best Answer

When someone is in a car accident where they are "rear-ended" they can suffer injuries due to the sudden impact of another car hitting the back of their car. Whiplash is a common injury following this type of collision. Depending upon the rate of impact, brain injury, broken bones, and concussion can also occur.

Rear ended in California with a lapse in auto insurance is the person that hit you still responsible for medical injuries?

I am not familiar with California laws but... In 99% of cases, the person who rear-end's you is at fault. If the other person is at fault, they are liable for damages and medical injuries. The fact that you are not insured does not make the at fault driver not responsible for damages and injuries that he or she causes.

What are some common injuries resulting from an auto crash?

The injuries from a car crash can depend upon how the impact occurs. If you are in a frontal collision inside a passenger car, common injuries can vary from minor issues such as small cuts and bruising to serious injuries such as bone fractures, concussion and crush injuries. It is more likely that the driver in this type of a crash will be injured due to the chest of the driver impacting the steering wheel. If the vehicle impacts at speed and a seat belt is worn then there may be some serious bruising across the chest. If the vehicle is hit from behind the passengers in the vehicle won't suffer injuries quite as serious and commonly include injuries such as minor bruising and whiplash.
