Ram Kumari Sharma Vs. Ram Kishan and ors.

Court: Rajasthan

Decided on: Jul-30-1980

Reported in: 1(1985)ACC497

P.K. Banerjee, J.1. This appeal is directed against the order of Motor Accident Claims Tribunal, Kot rejecting the application of the appellant claiming Rs. 30,000/- as damages for death of Geeta Rani, daughter of the appellant, Geeta Rani aged 7 years, when she was crossing the road, was run over by the truck and died on the spot. The learned Judge held that Geeta Ram was negligent for her death and not the river and therefore, the application was rejected. In my opinion, the finding of the learned Judge is wrong. When a child is involved in the accident it is no answer to say that the child was negligent. I can understand an adult contributing to the negligence causing death or accident, but to say a child aged 7 years was negligent and therefore, the driver cannot be blamed is to say the least preposterous. It is always the duty of the driver to be vigilant whether on the road there is a child crossing the road and that is why the road signs are always there when the children of the...
