I have.

My first accident was a rear end collision, some 16 year old white trashmobile crashed into me and totalled my car.

I didn't notice anything immediately, but one day my back started screaming in pain and I couldnt even bend down to tie my shoes.

My second accident, I skinned a utility pole doing 40,

I felt some tightness/loss of range of motion in my neck. It was like you slept on it wrong and if you turned to the left, shooting pain ahoy.

I had some whiplash after an auto accident in May. I went immediately to my doctor (a chiropractor) after the accident. He was able to put things back in line before the swelling became a real problem. However, I still had some neck aches, some headaches, and occasionally restricted movement in my neck for about 6 to 8 weeks as things healed.
