Passenger Injury claim

Hi everyone,

So my mate crashed his car into another and I was the passenger. I suffered back injury and haven't gone to work for a month as my job involves heavy lifting. I was wondering if I made a passenger injury claim through a solicitor would it affect my own car insurance and do I need to declare it to my own insurance provider? As I'm thinking of claiming as I have suffered financially from being off work for a month.

    Making a claim for compensation as a passenger in a vehicle won't have to be disclosed to other insurers
