The government is promising more than £1bn in savings for motorists, as new rules on car insurance claims for whiplash come into effect on Monday.
The changes aim to reduce the high numbers of fraudulent road traffic accident claims made each year.
The new rules will enable insurers to cut premiums for millions of drivers by about £35 a year, say ministers.
The reforms will also include a simplified process for making accident claims online that are under £5,000.
