Yesterday, online news reported about a car chase, which caused some minor accidents in Los Angeles.
The report said the police have arrested the suspect who drove opposite freeway traffic that led to high speed chase between him and the police.
During the chase, the suspect’s vehicle figured in a collision accident with another vehicle in Mission Hills. As of the time of this writing, it wasn’t known yet whether the crash caused any injuries.
But, reading the news, I think one thing here is known and certain.
The law, to protect the motorists from their reckless and negligent fellow, requires the erring drivers to compensate their victims for any damage, bodily injury or damage to property, alike.
Therefore, for the collision this driver caused in the intersection in Mission Hills, irrespective of the fact that no injuries are known to have been sustained, he will have to face prosecution for the compensation of the other driver for the damage that the latter sustained from the collision.
Not to mention the certainty of the fact that the driver will be facing charges for his felonious act and violations of the existing traffic rules and regulation of the county or state.
The victim of the car collision may claim from his own or the suspect’s insurance company for the actual value of the repair of his vehicle together with other damages.
Good thing the person was arrested. His victim will no longer have the extra burden of looking for him.
