1. On 27th April 1974 the car in which the second plaintiff (whom I shall refer to as the plaintiff) was travelling as a front-seat passenger was struck from behind by another car. Later that day the plaintiff began to experience severe pains in her lower back. Two days later while on duty at a nursery school where she was then working, she suffered intense pain and was forced to go and see a doctor. She was given painkillers and told to stay off school for two days.
