Courts Award Compensation for Road Accident Victims

Courts Award Compensation for Road Accident Victims

Two different courts in India have given money to people who were hurt or whose family members died in car accidents.

In one case, a man's mother got Rs 1.3 crore because her son died when a car hit his scooter.

The court said the car driver was driving too fast and not carefully, so he was at fault.

The insurance company tried to say the man wasn't wearing a helmet, but the court said that didn't matter.

In another case, a man got Rs 51.49 lakh because he was hurt badly by a truck inside a factory.

The court said the truck driver was driving carelessly and was responsible.

Both courts made the insurance companies pay the money to help the victims.
