Two cars collided: who is at fault and how much will they pay?

The story:

• One December evening in 2022 two cars collided – an Audi A5 and a Kia Ceed. The Audi sustained significant damage.
• The Kia Ceed driver was found at fault and his license was suspended for a year.
• The Audi A5 driver (the victim) had to spend significant money on repairing his car.
• His emotional state suffered from the stress he endured.

The court:

• Attorney V. Petryk applied to the court on behalf of the Audi A5 driver to recover compensation from the person at fault and his insurance company (“Ukrainian Transport Insurance Company”).
• The court granted the claim.
• The person at fault must pay the victim:
  • UAH 85,701.16 for the Audi repairs;
  • UAH 10,000 for moral damage;
  • UAH 1,930.61 in court fees.

This story offers clear lessons:

• Be careful on the road – even a small mistake can have unpleasant consequences.
• Do not neglect insurance – it can help you in a difficult situation.
• Do not give up if the person at fault behaves brazenly and refuses to compensate the damage voluntarily.
