20-Sep-2023 (In Motor Accident Law)
My insurance got lapsed before 20 days but i met with an accident with auto rickshaw as he was in wrong side. And his passenger leg fingers got wounded. Mistake was on driver side, my vehicle got damaged and i got small scratches around my hands and legs... What will be the penalty i should pay for passenger...?
Dear friend, driving without insurance is an offence under the MV Act, which will attract a fine of Rs. 2000.
Since there is no fine specified under the MV Act for causing accident with a vehicle having lapsed insurance, the amount you have the pay to opposite party varies on the gravity of damage or injury sustained by him.
The court consider various factors including the medical expenses,mental agony, and at times might even consider his inability to carry on with his work which would inturn affect his earnings.
The fine slapped on you will be directly in proportion to the injury sustained.
