What is the test for determining the nature of a motor vehicle accident?

The defendant submits that the analysis of the nature of the accident must include as one factor the nature and severity of the collision having reference to the decision in Cahoon v. Brideaux, 2010 BCCA 228, and Ahibwai v. Anslow, 2015 BSCS 1824. These cases support the proposition that because the degree of force applied to the human body is logically expected to inform the degree of resultant injury, the “magnitude of the collision” is a factor, which is not determinative of the type or degree of injury but is to be considered in the totality of the evidence.
