OK - I had an altercation with the side of a hill in my work car today.  Bloody sheep on the road freaked me out as I was going around a corner on a metal road and bang.  I'm scooting towards the bank.

 

I hit the bank with the front drivers side corner at about 20 - 30 km - so did get flung sideways.  Not quite sure as while I was skidding to my doom, I was too busy mourning my perfect record at work (no accidents, no tickets) - that I didn't really pay attention to whether I was injured or not.

 

Anyway, apart from a graze and bruise on my arm and a bit of tingling from where I must have wacked my elbow, I thought I'd come off pretty well.  But now my neck is starting to get a bit stiff.  Not sure if I've got whiplash, or it was due to the 5 hours of driving I did today?

 

Can the effects of whiplash come later on?

 

BTW - hopefully only a few hundred dollars of damage to the car - I cracked the plastic moulding under the front bumper.
