Ambulance accident injury

A paramedic has won over £60,000 in compensation after a van crashed into his ambulance. He was in the passenger seat of the ambulance when a van driver sped through a red light and crashed into the vehicle. Although he was wearing his seatbelt, he suffered a serious injury to his shoulder that required two operations. After the accident he was unable to return to work for some time and when he did, he was initially only able to undertake light duties. He was awarded £62,856 in compensation for his injury.
