LONDON, UK — A woman injured in a car crash with Britain's Prince Philip last week has said he still has not apologized to her directly. Police spoke to Queen Elizabeth's husband over the weekend, after photos surfaced showing him driving without a seat belt just two days after that crash.

When the 97-year-old husband to the monarch was involved in the fairly minor car accident last week, reportedly suffering cuts, the public response was one of concern, but as CBS News correspondent Holly Williams reported, much of that sympathy had evaporated by Monday because of what the prince has, and has not done since the crash.

Emma Fairweather was the passenger in the car that collided with Prince Philip's Land Rover as he pulled onto a road near a royal estate last Thursday. She suffered a broken wrist, and is upset that she still hasn't heard directly from the prince.
