What to Do If Someone Else Causes an Accident While Driving Your Car?
1 Answers
If the vehicle owner knows or should have known that the vehicle has a defect, and this defect is one of the causes of the traffic accident, they will be liable for compensation. If the owner knows or should have known that the driver does not have a valid driver's license or lacks the appropriate driving qualifications, they will also bear relevant liability. If the owner knows or should have known that the driver is unable to operate the vehicle due to reasons such as alcohol consumption, they will also be held responsible. If the owner lends the vehicle to someone else and none of the above three conditions or other faults apply, they will not be required to bear any compensation liability.
