Compensation under MACT Act depends upon many factors of the party suffering from it. Person who is hit by the vehicle is of how much Age, his qualification, education and professional skill and his contribution to family concerned, his future earning power effected by the accident and his own social status etc. For its calculation there is a calculation table in the act to assist the court for its final determination.
Now come to the part where accused person is not able to provide compensation ordered by court to the suffering applicants. in this situation the amount will be derived under the land Laws where his property can be auctioned yo pay the compensation and if by this also they can not earn ghe equal amount the accused to be sent to jail for the term determined by the executing court.
