Questions about claims in New England & North West
No. Distance from the coast makes no difference to how a NSW CTP claim works.

If a lawyer would help, many motor accident lawyers work with people in the North West by phone and video.
Generally, yes. The NSW CTP scheme usually applies to a crash on a NSW road, even if you live in Queensland or Victoria and were only passing through. Get medical care, keep the discharge papers from the hospital that treated you, and note the other vehicle's details and any police event number. You can lodge and manage the claim from home by phone, email and online, ideally within 28 days.
