She has to pay as much as she has.

BobPRESS5:
Has this happened to you before?
I have seen someone who refused to pay in full claiming it was not intentional.

Cokahot:
He should fuc k her hard for the next 3 months

SUPERPACK:
The minute you buy or drive a car, bicycle or bike you are liable for any loss, damage or loss of life caused by it. Every car owner is tasked to ensure all parts of his car is in good condition before driving such. Some accidents are also beyond the power of maintenance culture and being careful, in such a case reason and negotiation would come to rescue.

You can't claim partial damage when you slept off and had a crash, nor when your brake was last serviced 3 years before the crash.

In all cases the affected party has the upper hand and has the right to demand for compensation be it full or partial.

What happened to her vehicle insurance cover?

BobPRESS5:
So which is the best alternative!?.
To go meet your insurance company or hold the the perpetrator to repair your car?

fabienjoe:


Your insurance company would not repair damage not caused by you. The person at fault, intentionally or not should do the repairs. Ideally his or her insurance company would carry out the repairs. The first step in an accident is for the two parties to exchange insurance details. The premium usually increases after such repairs. It goes into a database so that even if the person decides to change insurer, the history would still be accessed and a higher premium still applies. But here, most drivers have fake insurance and so negotiate an out of pocket payment in the event of an accident. No road user has the right to impose costs, injuries or inconveniences on others.

BobPRESS5:
A woman had a break failure and and swerved straight and caused this damage.
It was terrifying but no life was lost.
She should pay for the complete damage or pay what she can afford!
How do you sort issue of break failure accident?

BobPRESS5:
This is Nigeria!
The argument and excuse people do give when accident happens doesn't give room for this your assertion!
I pray we get to this your level of reasoning and understanding one day!

If the perpetrator have an insurance cover, then her insurance company will be liable for the damage

9icetoo:

The road traffic act mandates all vehicles to have third party insurance.

Third party insurance takes care of issues like this to a certain amount depending on your insurance provider.

This question would be mute if she has third party insurance and not even be a topic for discussion if she has comprehensive insurance .
She should contact her insurance company and not subject the owner of the other car to undue stress.

9icetoo:

We are there already.
People just refuse to do the needful.

BobPRESS5:
Maybe there was no insurance then because I can see from the woman's reaction that the damage cost will be on her head alone!

BobPRESS5:
Seems you are miles ahead of us oo.
Better join insurance company

9icetoo:

People are just ignorant and the insurance companies feed fat on this ignorance.

ospreywin:
Chai! What happened to insurance? We don't really take insurance serious in this country.

I had an incident on public transportation. The driver braked sharply when he saw a child running out onto the road, and I couldn't hold on and fell, breaking my nose. I was very upset by this incident and wanted to get moral and physical compensation. But I was refused in all instances. My friend advised me to go to a [url="https://www.claimsaction.co.uk/road-traffic-accident-claims/bus-accident-claims/"]bus passenger injury claim[/url], who could help me settle the matter. Has anything like this ever happened to you?
