Four months ago, my car’s back door accidentally brushed against a motorbike, causing the rider to fall. I took him to the government hospital, where he was treated for minor injuries. I tried to compensate for the damage to his bike, but his relatives gathered and kept me waiting for hours without revealing their demands. Feeling unsafe, I left for my family’s well-being. Recently, the traffic police contacted me, asking me to visit the station with my vehicle. They registered a case under sections 279, 337, and 187, provided me with a copy of the complaint, and issued a bond for my vehicle’s release after I got it cleared from the RTO. My car was undamaged. The police informed me that I only need to pay a fine of ₹1500 in court when summoned. What happens next? Will the case be closed after paying the fine? I have third-party insurance. Can they add more charges or file additional complaints? Do I need to involve my insurance for this matter? Kindly advise.Four months ago, my car's back door accidentally brushed against a motorbike, causing the rider to fall. I took him…

My sister’s husband was recently involved in a terrible accident while riding his bike. He was hit by a car, leaving him with serious injuries. He’s currently fighting for his life in a private hospital, slowly recovering. The car driver, unfortunately, ran away from the scene. A Member of Parliament, who witnessed the incident, thankfully rescued him. The accident made it to the news the next day, and an FIR was filed at the police station. The police summoned both parties for a settlement, but claimed the mistake was on my relative’s side and offered a paltry sum of ₹60,000 as compensation from the car owner. My brother-in-law has two young daughters, and his future is uncertain.My sister's husband was recently involved in a terrible accident while riding his bike. He was hit by a car,…

Last year, on September 7th, my mother was tragically killed in a bus accident. She was standing safely on the roadside, at least 3 feet away from the road, when a passenger bus hit her. It’s heartbreaking, and while time has passed, we have witnesses who are ready to testify in court. Sadly, the police are not cooperating, and they filed a report blaming my mother. However, many people have come forward stating it was the driver’s fault. Some are willing to testify, while others fear the local police officer’s influence. How can I use these witnesses to ensure justice for my mother? What steps can I take to strengthen our case against the driver?Last year, on September 7th, my mother was tragically killed in a bus accident. She was standing safely on the…

My friend, a young man of 26, tragically passed away in a motorcycle accident in 2012 due to reckless driving by a tempo driver. He was the only child of his parents, who are now 61 and 58, and the sole breadwinner for the family. They filed a compensation case in the district court, but the insurance company is delaying the proceedings. His monthly salary was ₹35,000 (₹12,000 basic + ₹23,000 incentives).I have a few questions about this situation:1. Can incentives be considered while calculating compensation, as they were a part of his regular income?2. What would be a fair compensation amount in this case?3. Can the insurance company appeal the court’s decision in a higher court?4. If both his parents pass away, would his sister be entitled to the compensation amount?My friend, a young man of 26, tragically passed away in a motorcycle accident in 2012 due to reckless driving…
