The impacted vehicle traffic accident after the depreciation should be compensation

Currently has a motor vehicle population is increasing, on the one hand reflects the improvement of people's material life, but every advantage has its disadvantages, on the other hand, increased there is a traffic accident, often after the accident, the compensation issue, both sides Each sticks to his own stand. Especially the car hit car, car price cheap car after the case, everyone is Each sticks to his own view., debate, then for the impacted vehicle depreciation costs should be recovered?

As a lawyer, in my daily work also often received this advice and case, I hold a positive opinion for the problem, that the fault should be on the impacted vehicle depreciation costs compensation. In order to let everyone have a more intuitive understanding of the problem, here illustrated by a simple case:

The plaintiff driver driving a Mercedes BenzS600Cars, running to an overpass. At this time, the defendant China driving a car Bora, illegal driving reverse, bumping into a Mercedes car, the results seriously damaged has two cars. The public security departments to identify a Chinese response to the bear full responsibility for the accident. After the incident, Mercedes Benz car after repair cost5Million yuan.

Think Mr. Lee, the millions of dollars worth of Mercedes Benz car was badly damaged, although the car has been repaired, but the car so much about the devaluation20Million yuan, because someone has to insurance companies to buy the third comprehensive liability insurance, it will be the driver, owner of the prosecution to the court, insurance companies will be listed as third people, requested the two defendants and the insurance company paid for auto repair costs, and asked two defendants to pay compensation of the vehicle devaluation fee20Million and appraisal fees8000Element.

The court thinks, the vehicles due to traffic accident damage, although it has been repaired, but it is difficult to completely restore performance, specifications, safety accident before the car to the requirements. But, in the automobile market, for the traffic accident vehicle, apparently without accident vehicles to low valuation ratio. In law, the difference between the value should be the direct loss of the vehicle, should belong to the category of civil law's loss, the victim's rights should be protected, the claim for loss of vehicle depreciation request is reasonable, legitimate. The report is based on the relevant assessment, was hit in the accident before the value theory99Million yuan, after the accident repair is completed, the existing value evaluation for79Million yuan, depreciation19.11Million yuan.

Accordingly, the court made the ruling.
