Can I still claim compensation if I was a passenger in 50/50 fault car accident?

Hi, I was involved in an accident that was not my fault but I was not driving and the accident was the fault of the driver of the car I was in because we rear ended the other vehicle.

We were heading home and we was driving up the little arched bridge by Sefton Park then the car in front just suddenly stopped and this was dangerous driving, but the driver of my car did not stop in time to avoid the accident either.

I have been told this is a 50/50 liability accident unless the other driver takes responsibility.

Can I claim compensation for my injuries as a passenger? The owner of the car has 3rd party fire & theft insurance.

I was not seriously injured in the accident just back pain, but my doctor told me I had whiplash and gave a three week prognosis off work.

Can I still claim compensation if I was a passenger in 50/50 fault car accident?

If I claim, will it affect my boy friend's insurance premium?
I don't want his payments to go up anymore.
