You can claim from the RAF if:
- you were injured in an accident and were not the driver solely responsible for the accident
- you’re the driver responsible for the accident but not the owner of the vehicle, and the accident was a result of the owner’s negligence (for example, because the owner failed to replace worn brake pads on the vehicle)
- you’re a child, spouse or other person who was dependent on the income of a person killed in an accident; for more information.
- you’re a close relative of the deceased and paid for this person’s funeral.
You cannot claim from the RAF if:
- you were the driver and are the owner of the vehicle solely responsible for the accident
- you were the only person involved in the accident (for example, you were injured because you crashed your vehicle into a tree or other obstacle, and nothing else, such as badly maintained roads, contributed to the accident).
