Who is Responsible for Accidents During the Subject 3 Driving Test?
1 Answers
Introduction to liability for accidents during the Subject 3 driving test: 1. The test center bears partial responsibility: If the accident occurred due to inadequate safety measures by the test center, the center must bear a portion of the liability, though not the full responsibility. 2. The examinee is responsible: The liability is also analyzed based on the examinee's actions. If the examinee followed all regulations during the test and the accident was caused by another vehicle on the road, that vehicle would bear full responsibility. However, if the accident resulted from the examinee's improper operation or failure to heed the instructor's advice, the examinee would be held fully accountable. 3. The instructor is responsible: Additionally, the liability depends on the driving school where the examinee is enrolled. Generally, examinees taking the Subject 3 test have been approved by their instructors in terms of skill. If an accident occurs during the test, both the driving school and the instructor share some responsibility. If the accident was entirely caused by the instructor's incorrect guidance, the instructor would bear all remaining liability.
