Do I have violation?

[ice15]

May police report po yan, walang recorded violation on our part, pero we ended up on the exit part of the drive-thru kaya di na nakita ng police kung san kami nabangga, also the truck is company owned kaya ilalaban ko kasi liability ng company yung palpak nilang driver at sa kanila na galing na yung iba nilang driver naaksidente narin few times. Ayoko ipitin yung driver kasi alam kong wala akong mapipiga, kaya yung owner ng company ang kakasuhan ko, pero pilit madadamay si driver. Just like what the other guy posted, they offered us na sila na magpapagawa kasi may kilala daw sila, pero sabi ko my pick-up is casa maintained kaya hindi po kami papayag na sa kung saang talyer nyo lang dadalhin. After that wala nakong narinig from them, kahit sinabi ko na nakakasuhan ko na sila at lahat ng magagastos ko sa attorney, sisingilin ko sa kanila, no response parin. Anyway, I appreciate everyone's post, if you guys could share more of your experiences lalo na kung may attorneys involved na, feel free to do so, so I can learn a thing or two. Thank you.

"It is a violation against negligent hiring through Article 2176 of the new civil code of the Philippines and protection against negligent hiring through Article 2180 which states that not only is the person who committed the quasi-delict liable, but also those that are responsible for this person, i.e. their employer. Employers are responsible for the damage caused by their employees when the employee was doing something related to the company."

company will point at the driver, and yes that's correct since sya nag drive. also the reason why some people who can afford it prefer to be driven (than drive their own car). anything happens, they walk away.

your lawyer will use the driver's address based on his driver's license (or police report).

if you're lucky that the driver still lives there, he will receive the subpoena. if he moved house na which will be recommended by his boss, he will not receive the subpoena and your case will be left pending.

only way you'll see him again is if your lawyer placed a hold departure order, just incase magtravel aboard si driver.

later, since hindi mo na mahihintay yung case, you will fix the car on your own.

once the judge sees that the car has been fixed na, high likely he will just dismiss the case since "ano pa gusto mong habulin?"

pero I agree, demanda ka pa din. 85K on your side to make the company think twice before they hire another incompetent staff. it will be enough to make them loose sleep for a couple of days. if you're lucky, they'll fire the driver

may ilan na din akong naka pending na demanda just to inform the other party na di lahat ng tao will just let the incident go... every now and then nag follow up din ako sa lawyer ko (Mr. 85K + 5K for every appearance) para lang mapuyat sila paminsan minsan.

I grew up with my family na nasa PUV business. di ko na mabibilang times na involved mga driver namin sa accident
I've been driving so long na din and madami na akong accident + demandahan stories

why do I spend 85K on my lawyer... me and my wife believes its a message to the other party na di lahat ng tao palulusutin ka kasi "wala kang pambayad"

its a crim case, no need for a lawyer, just pay the filing fee for actual damages and other damages you want to add in (moral, exemplary etc...).

pag civil case, yan need mo ng lawyer or anything that involves money pero sa criminal case like the one posted prosecutor na bahala sayo. dapat pina inquest mo na that evening para himas rehas na si lokong driver. - kung malaking corp pa yan di mas maganda

ilan ang pending complaints mo right now?

My post is based on experience... we do not let these small things go.

as I posted in another thread... after every car accident, ask the police to take you to the nearest hospital for a medical report (neck pains)

walang kulong ang destruction of private property... physical injury, meron

Hindi ba pasok sa small claims court ito? 500k na ang limit IIRC. If pasok sa small claims, no need for a lawyer anymore.

problem here is how to chase the driver...

how do you send a subpoena?

no subpoena received, case will be pending.

so again, swerte mo if

the driver's address sa license nya is updated
OR
the address he gave the police is correct
OR
naka tira pa sya sa address na binigay nya

tinawagan ng police yung driver na magpakita sila this sunday sa presinto, sabi ng driver sasabihin daw nya sa amo nya, if ever hindi masettle that day, pwede ko na ba syang kasuhan that day para wala ng takas?

criminal case sa driver and civil case sa owner ng truck/company? alam ko kasing wala akong mahahabol sa driver, kaya gusto ko idemanda yung owner kasi i know he can afford to pay the damage. Gusto ko nga sana ipaimpound yung truck that morning para may leverage pero sabi ng pulis hindi daw pwede, and then later i found out pwede pala kung nagdemanda na ako, hindi naman sinabi saken ng pulis.

anong ikakaso mo sa kanya para makulong sya?

if ever magpakita si driver, I'm sure magmamaka-awa si driver... and wala syang pambayad syo... we all know how this story will end.

Yes, pwede impound if hindi sila mag settle sa damage ng sasakyan mo… better yet if you have compre insurance, taga insurance na mag settle sa kanila..

Gagawa report yung police at endorse ng barangay na hindi na-settle. Yun pwede na kasuhan for civil claims.

Mahirap if criminal case ikakaso mo, proof beyond reasonable doubt tandaan mo nag kelangan mo. Sabihin lang ng driver na hindi niya intensyun yun at nagkamali lang estimate, tapos na criminal case mo. Civil case talaga of quasi-delict or torts para sure win ka.
