My 76 year old mother was on a bus last week which was full and had to stand among the crowded bus, as the bus was moving along the road a car shot out in front of it and the bus driver slammed on his brakes suddenly to avoid hitting the car, my mother hurt her back trying to stop herself from falling but did not realise this at that time till the next day, she was in agonising pain and had to go to the hospital for an xray, even though nothing is broken she sprained her back quite badly and is on pain killers, My question is can she claim compensation from the bus company for this? she did not report this to anyone other than her GP, she knows the number of the bus but not who was driving it.
