Ms. Blenkarn was at fault for her 1st accident. She was later involved in 4 more mva’s for which she was not at fault. Her 2nd – 4th mva’s worsened her 1st mva injuries. Her 5th mva was more significant and caused her to stop working because of her headaches. At trial ICBC’s lawyer argued that:
- all of Ms. B’s injuries were mainly caused by her 1st accident &
- thus, her damages should be significantly reduced to account for this.
