    Case Summary: MVC 263/2025 Court Decision: The court allowed the petitioners' Motor Vehicles Act claim petition in part, awarding Rs.46,15,500 with 6% annual interest. Key Facts: A 48-year-old Ayurvedic doctor (Subhaschandra Kori) died in a road accident on March 17, 2025, when a truck collided with his motorcycle. The truck driver was negligent; the motorcycle rider had consumed alcohol but was positioned correctly on the road. The petitioners (wife and minor daughter) and deceased's parents claimed compensation from the truck owner and insurer. Court's Reasoning: The court found sole negligence by the truck driver based on accident topology, rejected the insurer's defenses regarding permit violations and the rider's alcohol consumption, and calculated compensation across four heads: loss of dependency (Rs.43,87,500), consortium (Rs.1,92,000), loss of estate (Rs.18,000), and funeral expenses (Rs.18,000). The truck owner and insurer are jointly liable; the insurer must deposit funds within 60 days, distributed as 50% to the wife, 35% to the daughter (in fixed deposit until majority), and 15% to parents.
