    Final Order

    The Motor Accidents Claims Tribunal awarded ₹5,07,520 in compensation to petitioner Sorimuthu Vellaiyappan for injuries sustained in a motor accident caused by the rash and negligent driving of an autorickshaw. The tribunal found the petitioner suffered fractures and injuries documented through hospital records, and that police evidence established the second respondent (driver) as liable. United India Insurance (third respondent) was directed to pay compensation and recover the amount from the vehicle owner and driver, despite the vehicle lacking fitness certification at the time of accident.
