Welcome to RAMLA

Motor vehicle accident damage claim enforcement
- defence against inflated or unreasonable claims
- Motor Insurance disputes - claim declines

Caught up in a car accident

in South Africa, may force a party to claim damages from the wrongdoer,

or may lead to the need to defend against inflated or unrealistic claims.

RAMLA - Road Accident Management & Legal Action

Car accident lawyers and professional claim managers, enforcing traffic collision damages, effective, decisive but affordable.

Caught up in a traffic collision were motor cars/vehicles been involved, most of the time material damage or damage to property such as cars or other amenities, will come along with the impact.

An impact causes damages and compensation for repairs is automatically at stake.





RAMLA do concentrate on material or financial damage compensation claims, to get you be paid from the wrongdoer and/or liable party, in an accident scenario.

Such compensation claim can be one directly targeted against a wrongdoer in person, or dealing with representatives such as Lawyers or Motor Insurance Company claim deciders as a 3rd party claim.

Any claim needs to be funded on evidence and factual arguments supported by proof.

Proofing a claim is often easier said as done, as proof comes - in almost all cases - from the circumstances of the accident and evidence need attention right at the scene of impact.

Given if it is missed to secure evidence at the scene and its been not thoroughly attended to, it is time to do it now and act to secure all facts possible.

It is certainly not impossible to get such evidence, even in time after the accident, but it can be more difficult.

It may happen that potential witnesses left without identification, debris be cleared, faulty traffic lights be repaired, or CCTV footage deleted.

Pictures from the scene, document vehicle positions - damages etc., can only be taken, if and when cars still be in its places, which - once available - will have significant value in proofing facts and help reconstruct the impact or scenario.







As much important evidence is in itself, it is evenly relevant to know how to use it.

The ultimate goal is to be compensated for losses.

Experience is needed to be knowledgably and competently in order to address a claim and achieve a fair compensation pay.





Once a claim formulated, documented and served, still the reaction of other parties needs to be waited for and the content thereof to be analysed.

Results will define actions as what steps will or need to be taken next.





As a claim is formulated and supplied, it is to no certainty that reporting a fair claim, even if it is well documented, must lead the other party agree and accept and certainly pay the damages claimed.

Disputes can arise about the way all unfolded, the question of liability can be seen from different points of view, damage value or Quantum be under dispute and many more aspects of disputes can be raised, too much to get to in this column.





Another weak point can be a lack in knowledge how to handle a compensation claim.

People only looking for some advice only a while or even after a longer period of time, past the actual accident, and visit Web Pages such as this one you browse now - often late, and in the meantime doing all they can to address a compensation action to his/her own knowledge.



Many try to act on what may be at hand and they find and regard themselves to be fit for it.

This may work for a number of cases, as matters are clear and facts at hand are strong in its evidential role and the opponent or defendant do not argue unfair.

However it would be too optimistic to believe it is the normality. It is not, as it is almost the opposite, as many cases end up unsatisfactory.





Results or settlement offers may be incorrect in adjustment of liability, often named as contribution to the accident, by not adhere to all the duties, citing perhaps unreasonable precedents and/or allege and apply apportionment.

That may lead to significant losses, shortfalls or complete denial/repudiation of a claim.

Not any layman may be qualified to see through all of that and know if all what one faces in terms of reaction or settlement offers, will be fair and correct.

We do believe it is worth taking time and effort to check out on any doubt, before accepting any proposal.





Sometimes bodily injuries occur in a vehicle collision inflicting harm and pain to humans.

Even bodily injuries do have in some way a financial component and a victim need to be compensated in order to cope with recovery and subsequent costs etc.

However - we the author of this Web Platform - RAMLA - do not deal with bodily injuries claims.

Many specialised lawyers offer its services to solve matters pertaining a RAF (Road Accident Fund,) - bodily injury compensation claim, but the South African Government recommend a victim to first check and find out if one can claim without any specialist, in order not to spend a large portion of compensation on Lawyers fees.

Initially important is, to know the definition of what we have to understand, is full and fair motor accident damage compensation.

But even before doing so, we have to clarify that the South African System of motor car accident compensation, is split into the sector of bodily injuries, which deals with compensation actions regarding injuries to the human body and material damages, such as compensation for car destruction or consequential damages.

The RAMLA web pages, you are browsing currently, only focus on material damage compensation and civil claim actions to be financial/material losses paid for full and fair, resulting from traffic accidents.







In terms of compensation, the South African law say:

You should materially be compensated to the state before accident, so that you will be able to repair your car to pre-collision status, or if repair cost will exceed such pre-collision or market value; and the car be called a write off, be compensated to the amount of money the car been worth to time of impact, minus any sellable value or Salvage of the vehicle.





That means either you cannot expect a new car (some exemptions excluded here i.e. if your motor vehicle new, not older than a year since being on the road the first time, or depreciation kick in, if your car is fairly used and the marks of wear and tear, impacting your auto value to a specific time.

But even an older motor car must be repaired to manufacturer's standards to maintain the roadworthy status, as long as it will not be a write off.

Motor car accident damage claims may get into difficulties, once another party do not agree with what is claimed for.

Differences may be to condition of Quantum/Repair costs or of Liability.

Disputes must be addressed and corroborated by factual evidence, such as witness statements or pictures, CCTV footage or any other suitable evidence.

A successful claim should be supported by merits, so the other party do not have much to argue, but compelled to accept the claim demand and pay.

A claim launched with your own motor insurance company (comprehensive claim), will have to look on what you have covered under your policy, before any acceptance can be decided upon.

Depending on the cover taken, it can be the insured did accept some contribution, such as excess and the claim process need to be according to terms & conditions of the insurance contract.

A 3rd party claim, directed to the perpetrator however, must give you full compensation and no clauses, as insurance excess or any limitations in a insurance policy apply. Only the law of delict will be applicable to decide liability.

Any claim for car accident damage compensation can go wrong, be disputed or even declined.



As soon as in the process of a claim pursuit any disturbance or unusual investigation requests are noticed, it will be highly advisable to check critically, if your own knowledge and skill is sufficient to perform a vehicle crash compensation action your own, or if you should consider practical support by professionals.

A claim for compensation against another car driver or vehicle owner is a process and cannot be explained in a sentence.

There is a lot about the way to claim and about dispute issues or problems, that can occur in a particular and always individual case, on our comprehensive WEB info platform.

However, as it is often the case, individual problems need individual answers and/or actions.

Defending against inflated claims isn't as challenging as perhaps thought.

Defence against unrealistic, unjustified or inflated claims is a need to do, if alleged to be held liable for car accident damages, which do not fall in your responsibilities.

It is always an inconvenient situation when defensive actions are needed, as to alleged of wrongdoing, which isn't true or fair.

However any person unfairly accused of wrongdoing and causing damages to another in a motor car collision, must enter into defence, not to risk to be sued and end up innocently be judged against one and subsequently face execution, against all of your property.

It should be noted that a claim against a person, is only dangerous, if not defended properly.

Defensive actions mean, deny a claim and its accusation, simple and clear and request proof of facts and merits.

Only if such evidential facts indeed be supplied and its content suest not to allow challenging the accusation, it will be advisable to look for a compromise or settlement agreement.

It must be known, that a person sue another in a Court of Law, must proof that the allegations are true and fair on a balance of probabilities.

Should such a proof cannot be shown, a case is lost and dismissed with costs and the Defendant is released from any liability or compensation payment.

In order to avoid unnecessary risk and hassle, it is highly recommended to utilise professional support to rebut unfair allegations, not to lose out on reasons of lack of knowledge, how to act against such allegations.

Regularly, the employer will be responsible for the actions or harm constituted by an employed to others. A prerequisite that will impose liability onto the employer, next to the car driver, will be the employed in on duty of his regular business and in line with instructions from the employer.

As this will be the case, the motorist causing the car accident, drove in line with orders or tasks of daily business, victorious liability can be put forward to the employer, making him/her (the company) jointly and severally liable, for the damages to others, caused by the employed on duty.

Important however will be, that the deemed employed driver, is actually employed and on duty and in alliance with his orders in business. Once it is alleged or turned out, the deemed employed motorist, is not factually employed or claimed being an independent subcontractor, it should be investigated, what the status has been, to the time of the impact. A company cannot be held vicariously liable, for actions of a truly independent subcontractor.

In praxis, the argument the alleged employed, has not been employed or has been an independent subcontractor will be applied, as a tool in an attempt discharging vicarious liability.

What constitutes the facts of employment?

Employment must be seen established, once the employed will be under the supervision of an employer and being remunerated in whatever form, regularly in money.

An employment can be short term or long term, either as temporarily. Employment can be suspected or claimed, even for a single job under supervision.

Employment and resulting liabilities, for wrongdoing or harm, throughout negligent behaviour of an employed to others, while on duty, will only exist once the employer will have supervising power and ability to delegate the work or duty to an employed.

The element of supervising, directing, organising or controlling the tasks in employment will be crucial. Without power of directing and influencing the work tasks of an employee, no employment can be claimed.

An independent person, nevertheless performing for another and get paid or remunerated in whatever form, must rather be seen as an independent subcontractor or service provider, even if utilities of the "employer" will be needed and operated in performing.

Independence however can only be claimed, once no supervision, no dependency no instructions given by the "employer" must be abided.

The employed car driver must adhere to the duty of business

Once the status of the motorist is definitely that of an employed, still more factors are to look on, before the employer, can be held liable for wrongdoing and harm or damages to others, in performing duties by the employed.

The employed car driver must be on direct duty of the business, given to him/her and performing herein, to the time of a motor car accident. If an employed car driver deviate from the direct duties, in violation of his obligations, set out for the manner the duty should or must be performed, the employer can deny liability for those actions, occurred to a time of deteriorating from duty.

Such exclusion can be, if the employed motorist caused the vehicle accident, acted outside the direct duty, while performing privately in between the direct duties, taking detours etc. that are not scheduled.

If the employer can successfully argue, the employed violated the terms of direct duty, he/she can escape being charged with vicarious liability, and the claim must be directed solely to the car driver.

Vicarious liability of the employer for actions of the employed

We explained the term of vicarious liability already, but just refreshing, it's a liability imposed by law onto others not doing anything wrong, but do have special relationships with a person that did wrong.

The special relationship between employee and employed is the employment itself.

The employee utilise the employed to perform his business and entrusts the employed with duties, he/she cannot do on his/her own, for whatever reasons.

An employee empowering an employed with work, duties or tasks, must take responsibility for the negligent, inefficient or untrustworthy action of the employed. The creation of the risk will be on the side of the employee, once an employed will be under the duty of the orders and directions of the employee.

The "creation of risks" or risk liability, is the underlying factor creating vicarious liability.

Under such measures, an employee will be liable for actions and harm or damages, caused by the employed to others. The employee therefore can be held liable jointly with the car driver or severally liable, on behalf and for actions of the employed.

Dependent or independent subcontractor

In a car accident recovery claim, we looking to sue another defendant additionally, and not just the liable car driver, we deal with vicarious liability.

In praxis, employees are more often involved in motor car collisions as a private motorist, due and depended on the number of employed performing business utilising motor cars in public traffic.

Confronted with damage compensation claims more frequently, the employee will probably have some experiences and the need, minimising the impact to his business or insurance cover.

A more experienced employee does know about the liability for actions of the employed car driver and furthermore may know some arguments constructed to get around a compensation claim.

Some of those are claiming, the suspected employed will not be one in fact, as he/she is an independent subcontractor, for which the employer or contractor will not be vicariously liable, for any actions, performed by them.

Such arguments can be successful; avoiding liability to the detrimental of the claimant, once not determined met.

	RAMLA can help clients in all MVA matters to solve problems professionally, claims, disputes (3rd party / comprehensive Insurance cover), review of declines with the Ombudsman (OSTI) and defensive actions against unreasonable or inflated claims, professional - affordable.    Contact RAMLA for your support to have a damage claim paid or defenced.      Contact

The criteria of indeed dealing with an independent subcontractor are:

1. Not being bound on directions, instructions or the way performing

2. Not being under the supervision of the contractor

3. Working independently for more than just one contractor

4. Having and utilising own equipment performing the contract

5. Not receiving a regular, revolving salary.

A dependent subcontractor may perform some duties on its own, but some under instructions of the contractor and/or utilising contractors equipment.

A dependent subcontractor may by definition, rather be seen in the light of employment, instead of being indeed independent, which opens the door for vicarious liability.

Proving or disproving a status claimed, being an independent subcontractor will not always be easy and do come with challenges, but in a number of cases, worthwhile get into the facts.

Those employees, claiming the employed must be regarded as independent subcontractor, don't buy a case lightly, and considering forcing the claimant going the legal route, more often than others.

Addressing a compensation claim for vicarious liability

The parties, the employee and the employed must be demanded and hold liable, jointly and severally.

A claim demand or a legal action in a South African court of law must name and sue all the parties as defendants and explain the reason and facts of vicarious liability.

    

Need to open a compensation claim, where a company is involved

If it comes to the need opening a compensation claim, in a case where a company is involved, it is always highly recommended to sue both parties - the driver and the company - to pay for motor vehicle damages compensation, attempting to hold both the employed and the employee liable.

Make sure you have got all the company and driver's details and verified to the best possible option, right at the scene of the vehicle accident. If you are not able doing so, as you haven't been prepared and too nervous at all, after the impact, you will have lot of extra research afterwards, finding the business residence and other details of the employee, if the culpable car driver causing your car accident damage, will not be supportive.

Unfortunately often observed the employed liable car driver will, not be eager to support the victim, as he/she fears to face negative impacts to the employment. Most often this bad behaviour will apply, if you face companies where transport or delivery - meaning the proportion of driving to perform the business is rather huge than small, are involved.

Some of those bigger companies, do have own in house legal advisers/attorney, as they too often been involved in motor vehicle accidents, or other legal disputes and need a team to prevent them paying too much and i.e. from downgrading its risk profile by insurance companies.

That can mean, cases where the employee is involved, are most likely more difficult than enforcing compensation in car accidents, caused by private drivers.

What practically needs to be done to get paid your car damages, even if companies makes it difficult for you?

If involved in such motor car accident scenarios that have elements of vicarious liability, you should act very carefully, making sure the driver in charge in fact works for the company named to you and the accident happened while he was fulfilling his obligation in terms of his job.

If you make phone calls to verify the matter, protocol to whom and about what you have spoken and what kind of acknowledgements had been made. You need to speak to the manager in charge or the owner of the company, the liable car driver works for.

Unfortunately, you as the one suffered the car accident damage, probably required initiating a legal claim to enforce your car accident compensation; you must proof all your facts if you meet resistance, either by the company or by the insurance dealing with the matter.

As you rely on a telephone call made by the employed to the employer and briefing the boss with the problem, on the scene of car accident and the employed tell you the boss accepted the claim, you may be disappointed later, when the person employed you spoke to, will not remember or confirm anything, what you believed would be secure.

If you can manage to have witness when such telephone call take place, willing to testify in your favour, you have good cards.

It is hardly ever, that the company is pleased to pay for the driver's car accident damages. When the driver will not be insured or probably financially not strong enough to pay for the car accident damage caused by himself you need to held the company, liable too.

In your term to argue for your compensation you must apply the "master and slave" or better employee and employed, terms of law, when suing both driver and employee.

To be in a good position, one should make sure that such employment will be reported, in the police car accident report. It will be even better to have an affidavit filed and have it properly stamped and signed by a commissioner of oath - easy to achieve at any police station - stating all the driver's details and his relationship to the employee and a statement regarding the liability of the car accident.

It will be not the rule that you can get such affidavit right after the accident, but try to have an open relation with the deemed liable employed, to arrange for the affidavit, when it had been filed a little later.

Motivating the employed driver doing so, can help explaining that those measures are to get him out of the fire line personally, so that not the driver but the employee must pay for the damages, instead he/she must pay out of its own pocket.

The employee may use or fabricate arguments to avoid liability, such as that the driver may be an independent subcontractor, or that he is not in charge of the driver, or that the driver did not have the authorisation to drive at all, or perhaps the employed had not taken the route he had been instructed to use and therefore being deemed to be on a private part of the trip and many more reasons put on the table, to avoid the liability and payment.

You should make your proof and gathered information as watertight as possible, before you start claiming to recover your car accident damages, from the employee. It is quite important to know, that the driver may be in fear of his job and will not always be cooperative, to sort out the motor vehicle accident damage, at all.

	Market value, trade and retail value, scrap or salvage are all part in a "write off" case When it comes to more serious car accident damages often repair costs are high. Should repair costs exceed the market or pre-collision value of the motor car, it will be called a "write off". Unfortunately many of those been written off is caused by a decision of an Insurer. The manner in which the car values of a highly damaged vehicle being evaluated, is by applying value schemes, often inappropriate schemes or wrong assessment results should be challenged. A write off can cause many hassles in some regards. There are some value schemes offering private persons a one time free value check.
