Al Ain court obligates a man to pay 51,430 for causing traffic accident
The Abu Dhabi Family, Civil and Administrative Cases Court has ordered a person to pay Dhs51,430 plus a fine of Dhs5,000 as a compensation to another man for damaging two vehicles while driving. Earlier, the plaintiff filed a lawsuit against the defendant in which he requested that he be obligated to pay Dhs51,430, which was the cost of repair for his damaged car plus Dhs75,000 as the rental of a car of the same type that he had to rent while his car was under repair. He also requested the court to obligate the defendant to pay the incurred charges, expenses and lawyer's fees. The plaintiff pleaded that the defendant caused damage to his vehicle, noting that the defendant was convicted of the charge in a lawsuit that had already been filed against. In support of his lawsuit, the plaintiff attached to his docket a copy of the traffic accident report and a copy of the supervising judge's decision to appoint a technical expert to investigate the issue and assess the cost of repair of the plaintiff's vehicle. The technical expert decided that the total repair costs of Dhs51,430 as incurred by the plaintiff were reasonable and in line with the extent of the damages resulting from the accident, assuming that he had bought original spare parts. As for the plaintiff's request for Dhs75,000 as a compensation for not being able to use his car for approximately 6 months from the date of the accident until the date of the actual repair of the car, the court estimated that a Dhs5,000 compensation for the material harms caused to the plaintiff due to the defendant's error would be sufficient.
