    Case Summary: M.C.O.P. 9/2022 Court Decision: The Motor Accidents Claims Tribunal, Tenkasi awarded Rs. 31,34,000 in compensation to the parents of Yovan, a 23-year-old who died in a fatal road accident on August 20, 2021. The tribunal found the 1st respondent (truck driver) solely liable for rash and negligent driving that caused the death. National Insurance Company Limited, the insurer, was directed to pay the compensation with 7.5% interest. Key Reasoning: Evidence from eyewitnesses established that the truck struck the victim's two-wheeler after it had collided with a third two-wheeler. While three vehicles were involved, the tribunal determined the truck driver's rash driving was the primary cause transforming a minor collision into a fatal accident. The victim earned Rs. 20,000 monthly (notional income), and compensation was calculated using a multiplier of 18 based on the victim's age and applicable legal precedents.
