If you’re 100% sure the accident was your fault and the other side can easily prove it, then no. You don’t get to be compensated for injuries you caused due to malice or negligence. Of course, personal injury cases are seldom that clear cut, and there’s always a chance that both you and the other person involved in the accident were negligent at the same time.
The solution, then, is to talk to a good car accident attorney and discuss your case with them. You can find an attorney on a site like https://www.katemoorelaw.com/ada-vio..., and they will help you determine whether or not you have a case, and whether or not it is worth pursuing.
The last is important, since depending on your injuries, you may end up spending more on lawyer fees than you’ll ever get back in a settlement for the claim.
