    Summary: The Motor Accident Claims Tribunal, Ramanathapuram partly allowed the petitioner's compensation claim arising from a December 2024 motorcycle accident caused by the respondent's state transport bus driver's rash and negligent driving. The court found the bus driver solely responsible based on FIR, charge sheet, and police investigation, rejecting the respondent's defense that blamed the motorcyclist's reckless overtaking. The tribunal awarded Rs. 6,40,614/- total compensation (including Rs. 2,25,000/- for 25% disability, Rs. 2,05,614/- medical expenses, Rs. 50,000/- lost income, and Rs. 50,000/- pain and suffering) with 7.5% annual interest, substantially less than the petitioner's claimed Rs. 50 lakh.
