Not really, that's not how it works in the UK. The baby wasn't injured, the mother had a few cuts and the other woman in the car has a broken wrist, so no serious injuries to anyone. Obviously they will be covered for the damage to the car, and could claim for any loss resulting from needing to take days of work, or perhaps some physiotherapy for the one with the broken wrist, though all of that will probably be on the NHS anyway. The police are investigating the accident and Philip may well be prosecuted (though he could avoid prosecution by surrendering his license), especially if the passengers in the car push for it. But they are unlikely to make much money from bringing a civil claim, [b]as there's no concept of punitive/special damages in English law,[/b] and they really didn't suffer much loss.  [/quote]

Exactly. That's an American insanity.[/quote]

Looks like that insanity has crossed the pond. The victim is out for blood...and money.

The woman who broke her wrist in a car crash with Prince Philip has revealed her “pain, shock and upset” – and says the Duke has NOT apologised to her.

Weeping Emma Fairweather tells how the horrific collision unfolded “in slow motion” and says she “couldn’t stop screaming” as Philip’s Land Rover crunched into her friend’s Kia.

Mum-of-two Emma, who turns 46 on Sunday, says she has heard nothing from Buckingham Palace – despite officials saying that contact had been made “privately and well wishes exchanged”.[/quote]
