Legal basis

The procedure for recovering damage from a road accident is reflected in the Federal Law "On OSAGO".

On the basis of this law, all car owners are obliged to insure the risks of their civil liability. In the event of an incident, the insurer of the driver who provoked the accident will reimburse the losses under the contract.

Is compensation for damage in case of an accident under OSAGO

Every driver needs to remember that a compulsory insurance policy covers damage from an accident, and all other risks do not. The concept of "road traffic accident" includes any actions between cars that have caused damage to vehicles, people, even received at the parking lot or parking lot.

Any transport of all categories can be the object of an accident. On the basis of the compulsory insurance policy, only the injured party is entitled to compensation for losses.

Is compensation for damage in case of an accident under OSAGO supposed to the culprit?

A driver found guilty of a road accident will not be reimbursed for damage under the CTP policy.

Insurance is designed to protect the interests of the innocent party, in which the insurance company (IC) of the culprit compensates him for the amount of damage caused. The driver, through whose fault the accident occurred, will be able to restore his car only if he has a CASCO policy.

Direct Compensation Rules (DIR)

PVU implies that the car owner injured in a collision has the right to apply for compensation for damage to his company, with which he has signed an OSAGO agreement.

Situations in which the use of PVU is possible:

  • no damage to health and life has been caused in the event of an accident;
  • participants in the accident - 2 cars, the owners of which have valid insurance;
  • the license of the culprit's IC is valid;
  • mutual fault of the parties has not been established.

To receive the amount according to the PVU rule, you must provide the entire package of documents and receive a referral for an examination, in case of a satisfactory solution, the funds are transferred to the current account specified in the application.

Often, the PVU rule is triggered only with small material damage, and if large amounts are indicated, companies try to redirect the client to contact the organization of the culprit.

The procedure for compensation for damage under OSAGO

  • in the event of a traffic incident, it is necessary to report the incident to the UK in compliance with the deadlines specified in the contract;
  • together with documents on the accident, provide a statement of the occurrence of an insured event (SS);
  • on the basis of papers drawn up by representatives of the traffic police or by the drivers themselves at the scene of the accident, the IC decides on the fact of the occurrence of an insured event, or its absence; and on the provision of payments or on their refusal;
  • upon recognition of the SS, an independent examination is appointed to assess the damage, according to the results of which the amount to be compensated is determined, and within the established timeframes the funds are transferred to the applicant.

Insurance company notification

The policyholder is obliged to notify the company in the manner and within the time frames stipulated in the agreement:

  • Notification can be sent by any means of communication. Written information is considered to be transmitted on time, regardless of the fact of receipt of it by the insurer, on the basis of Art. 194 of the Civil Code of Russia.
  • Immediately obliged to notify about the SS not only the participants in the accident, but also the beneficiary under the insurance contract, if he intends to receive compensation.
  • The statutory obligation of the policyholder to immediately notify the company of the occurrence of an insured event is essential, since:
    • a representative of the insurance company gets the opportunity to immediately inspect the subject of insurance, record the degree of its damage, prevent the possibility of additional losses;
    • upon timely receipt of the notification, the insurer can independently take measures to reduce losses or save property, give instructions to the policyholder, organize a search for the loss;
    • timely information is required for the IC when building relationships with a reinsurance company.

Failure to comply with the obligation to report an accident is not the only reason for refusing to pay insurance. In case of untimely receipt of notification of the incident, the insurer has the right (not the obligation) not to compensate for losses.

Documents for submission to the UK

The application for payment should be accompanied by:

  • a certificate of a traffic incident;
  • ruling on refusal to initiate an administrative case;
  • the passport;
  • incident notification;
  • protocol and resolution on violation of the Road Traffic Rules;
  • vehicle registration certificate, PTS;
  • if, in addition to transport, other property is damaged, then documents confirming the ownership of them;
  • lease or lease agreement (if the car belongs to another person);
  • checks, receipts for payment of tow truck services for transporting a car to the place of repair or parking;
  • the expert's opinion and a check on payment for his services (if the examination was carried out at the initiative of the victim);
  • receipts for payment for car parking services from the moment of the accident until the day of the examination;
  • bank account number, name and bank details;
  • if the interests of a citizen in the UK will be represented by a representative, then a notarized power of attorney is needed.

SK cannot demand the provision of documents not specified in the insurance rules.

How does the UK work

As soon as the insurer receives all the documents and checks them and the correctness of filling, he has the right to appoint an independent examination of the car if contradictions are found in the nature or degree of damage to the car.

So, the UK within 30 working days, counting from the date of receipt of the application, is obliged to:

  • inspect the damaged transport - no later than 5 days from the date of receipt of the application;
  • if necessary, conduct an examination in an independent institution within 5 days after the inspection of the transport;
  • fill out an SS certificate or issue a referral for a car for repair;
  • pay out insurance or issue a referral for repairs;
  • if the case is recognized as not belonging to the category of insurance, then send a notice indicating the reasons for the refusal.

How much does the insurance company pay for OSAGO

To establish specific amounts of compensation, an examination of the damaged car is carried out, and, if necessary, an examination:

  • In case of partial damage to the car, the compensation will be the amount necessary to restore the car to the state in which it was before the accident.
  • When the cost of repairing damaged property equals or even overstates the price of the property itself, then we are talking about its complete loss. The payment will be the amount of the actual value of the car on the date of the accident.
  • If the traffic police were not called to the scene of the accident (if there is no damage to life or health), then the victim can count on the amount of payment of no more than 25,000 rubles.
  • If a repair was made or the car was scrapped before being inspected by the insurer, then he has the right to refuse payment.

Payment terms and limits

The UK is obliged to pay the refund within 30 days from the date of the application for the CC (). The maximum possible payout amounts vary depending on the date of purchase of the policy.

If the person responsible for the accident bought insurance before 10/01/14:

  • maximum 120,000 rubles, if the car of one victim is damaged;
  • maximum 160,000 rubles, if damage is caused to several machines.

If the culprit of the accident purchased the policy after 10/01/14, each victim has the right to a payment in the amount of not more than 400,000 rubles.

If the contract was concluded after 04/01/15, then each of the victims is entitled to an amount of not more than 400,000 rubles for damage to the vehicle. for harm caused to life or health - up to 500,000 rubles.

Reasons for refusal to pay MTPL insurance

Reasons for refusing to pay out insurance, fixed in the contract (legally):

  • mutual fault of drivers has been established;
  • The accident occurred due to the transportation of goods;
  • the victim claims the payment of moral damage or loss of profits;
  • damage was caused to a cultural monument, antiques;
  • the car involved in the accident is not indicated in the policy;

  • the policy turned out to be fake (in this case, it is necessary to contact the police and PCA);
  • the appeal occurred after the expiration of the terms specified in the contract (in this case, it will not work to count on insurance);

Illegal refusals to make payments, occurring due to the bad faith of the insurer, when the client is accused of violating the terms of the contract or the law:

  • intentional damage to property;
  • invalidity of the contract at the time of the accident;
  • expired;
  • or a link to the fact that the culprit of the accident:
    • was in a state of alcoholic or other intoxication;
    • he did not have the right to drive transport, he was not included in the CMTPL policy;
    • fled from the scene of the accident.

Such refusals are illegal, the insurer is obliged to compensate the victim for losses. And only then to recover them from the negligent culprit of the incident by way of recourse.

How to reduce the likelihood of receiving a denial of insurance payment

  • It is necessary to comply with all insurance rules, carefully read the contract and the documentation attached to it when signing.
  • Inform the UK in time about the occurrence of an accident.
  • Pay attention to the correctness of filling out the documents on the accident by the traffic police, check the correctness of contact information, addresses, full name, registration numbers and names of cars.
  • Prepare in advance copies of the documents that will be handed over to the UK, ask the company representative to mark the acceptance of the originals in order to provide copies in case of loss.
  • If a refusal to pay out nevertheless occurs, ask the insurer for his written reasoning.

The procedure for a person to be guaranteed to receive payments from the IC without filing a claim in court

The OSAGO rules specify in detail the entire principle of action of a person who wants to receive guaranteed compensation for damage:

  • The victim in the course of the accident, at a convenient opportunity, must notify the culprit's IC about the incident, with a brief description of the situation and clear answers to the questions asked.
  • The traffic police officers who arrived at the scene of the collision will draw up a certificate of the accident, and the drivers - a notification for the insurers. If the parties decide that there is no need to call the traffic police, then they need to fill out a general notification with a detailed description of the circumstances, time, place of the collision, indicating the culprit.
  • Before the expiration of the 15-day period from the moment of fixing the fact of the accident, the victim must come to the IC, write an application for obtaining insurance in the maximum amount and provide the entire package of documents.

Based on the information presented in this article, brief conclusions can be drawn:

  • Under the OSAGO policy, compensation for losses is due only for the injured party.
  • The law provides for direct damages to an innocent victim in his company.
  • It is necessary to inform the UK about the SS offensive as soon as possible.
  • Pay attention to filling out the documents at the scene of the accident, submit documents to the IC only under the signature of his representative or with filling out the register of submitted papers.
  • The whole procedure for recovering losses is specified in the law "On OSAGO".
  • You should not waste your time if the UK has legal grounds for refusing to pay insurance.

On April 28, 2017, amendments to the Federal Law "On Compulsory Civil Liability Insurance of Vehicle Owners" came into force. In the new version of the law, the procedure for compensation for damage caused to passenger cars has been changed. These changes concern vehicles owned by citizens and registered in the Russian Federation.

The priority form of compensation for damage will now be refurbishment at a service station.

How will it work?

The car owner chooses a service station (STO) from among those with which the insurance company has a contract. You can choose a service station both when buying a policy and at the stage of settling a loss. The list of service stations indicating the addresses of their location, a list of brands and years of production of serviced vehicles, as well as the approximate timing of the repair should be published on the website of the insurance organization and constantly updated.

Important! During refurbishment, in contrast to a cash payment, the wear of parts and assemblies is not taken into account, and the use of used or refurbished component parts is not allowed (unless otherwise determined by the agreement of the insurance company and the victim).

Can I choose another service station?

To repair a damaged car at a service station with which the insurer does not have a contract, it is necessary to obtain the written consent of the insurance organization. In the application for insurance compensation, it is necessary to indicate the full name of the selected service station, the address of the location and payment details so that the insurer can pay for the restoration repairs carried out.

What are the conditions for refurbishment?

The deadline for the repair is no more than 30 working days from the day the victim presents the vehicle at the service station.

Repair of new cars (not older than two years) must be carried out at the service station of an authorized dealer performing warranty service.

The minimum warranty period for repair work on a damaged vehicle is 6 months, and for body work and work related to the use of paints and varnishes - 12 months.

How to act in the event of an accident?

If, as a result of an accident, damage is caused only to vehicles and all drivers have valid OSAGO policies, then the claim for damages must be presented to your insurer

Important! In cases of harm to the life or health of the participants in the accident, an application for insurance compensation should be submitted to the insurance company of the perpetrator of the accident.

Completed notices of an accident must be transferred by the participants of the accident to their insurance companies (or their representatives in the constituent entity of the Russian Federation, on the territory of which the accident occurred) within five working days after the accident.

The term for considering an application for insurance compensation is 20 calendar days.

For failure to comply with the deadlines for issuing a referral to the victim for repairs, a penalty in the amount of 1% of the amount of insurance compensation for each day of delay is provided. For violation of the terms of the repair, the insurer is punished with a forfeit in the amount of 0.5% of the amount of insurance compensation.

In what cases is it possible to receive a refund instead of a repair?

Insurance payment in cash is made in the following cases:

  • death of the victim;
  • infliction of grave or moderate harm to the health of the victim (if such form of insurance compensation is selected in the application for insurance compensation);
  • the victim is disabled and has a car for medical reasons (if this form is chosen in the application for insurance compensation);
  • complete loss of the vehicle;
  • the cost of refurbishment exceeds 400 thousand rubles (50 thousand rubles for cases of registration of an accident according to the European protocol) and the victim does not agree to make an additional payment for repairs at the service station;
  • all participants in the road accident are recognized as responsible for the damage caused ("backbone") and the victim does not agree to make an additional payment for repairs at the service station;
  • as a result of an accident, damage was caused only to property that is not a vehicle;
  • the victim refuses to repair at the service station if it does not meet the requirements for the organization of refurbishment;
  • the insurance company does not provide the victim with the opportunity to carry out refurbishment at the service station specified when concluding the OSAGO contract;
  • a written agreement between the insurer and the victim.

Protection of the rights of consumers of insurance services

Insurance under the OSAGO program does not at all prevent all troubles and misfortunes for the car owner. Let's find out what OSAGO protects from? It applies only to strictly defined events - insured events. According to the rules of OSAGO, such an event is the occurrence of the driver's responsibility as a result of a road traffic accident. Moreover, we are talking only about property liability. All the hardships of its other types (for example, administrative in the form of a fine) are borne by the owner of the car independently.

To concretize, let us dwell on the signs of an accident. This phrase is used often, and the law clearly defines it. For an event to be considered an accident, it must:

  • occur when the car is moving on the road;
  • cause death or injury of people or certain material damage.

In the presence of these conditions, the insurer becomes obliged to make an insurance payment in favor of the victim. The victim will be a person whose health or property has been harmed by the actions of the driver. The driver himself, even if his property has suffered, will not receive anything. OSAGO is designed to pay compensation instead of the culprit whose liability is insured. In the absence of OSAGO, all responsibility falls on the culprit of the accident, and he makes all payments on his own.

Will the insurer reimburse the damage if the culprit is unknown?

At the present time there are enough violators and many of them seek to escape from the accident scene. They are not afraid of severe punishments for this offense, up to and including deprivation of rights. What to do if the culprit of the accident fled from the scene of the accident?

You are a little more fortunate if you managed to remember the number of his car. These data will be used by the traffic police in the process of searching for the intruder, thereby greatly facilitating the task. When the culprit is found, the victim will be able to apply to the insurance company for payment. And the insurer, in turn, will return the paid sums by right of recourse, since the car owner fled from the accident scene in violation of the rules.

If it was not possible to see and remember the number, then the matter is bad. Undoubtedly, the traffic police search department will be looking for the guilty driver. Only with insufficient information will its effectiveness be close to zero. Without knowing the culprit of the accident and the contacts of his insurer, it is impossible to receive compensation.

MTPL insurance coverage

It is important for motorists to know what is covered by OSAGO in case of an accident. What expenses is the owner of the damaged property entitled to claim for reimbursement?

For the purpose of making insurance payments, all property is divided into two categories: vehicles and other property. Other property can be buildings, structures, any things that were in the car at the time of the accident and damaged as a result of it.

The first situation: the road accident led to the infliction of damage to "other property". In this case, the insurer, at the request of the victim, conducts an assessment of the damage. Reimbursement is made by issuing a sum of money in cash or by transferring it to a bank account.

The second situation: only vehicles were injured due to the road accident. Here the insurance company is obliged to inspect the victim's car and identify the resulting deficiencies. Further, there are two possible scenarios for the development of events. If the policyholder agrees with the results of the inspection and the list of damages, then the insurer carries out the procedure for compensation for damage. If there are some disagreements on this matter, then the consequence should be an independent examination. In the course of it, an exact list of damage to the car is established.

In almost all cases where a vehicle has been damaged, the reimbursement procedure involves sending it for repair. The insurer has contracts with service stations, where he sends his policyholders after an accident. The insurance company is responsible for the timing and quality of repairs to the car owner.

During refurbishment at the station, it is prohibited to install used spare parts. If this happens, then a claim must be sent to the insurer.

In certain situations, even if the vehicle is damaged,. What are these situations?

  1. Complete destruction of the car as a result of an accident or the impossibility of its restoration. The amount of the payment is equal to the cost of the vehicle on the day of the accident, but is limited to the amount of 400 thousand rubles.
  2. The car belongs to a foreign citizen. In this case, the payment should cover all the owner's expenses for car repairs: from the purchase of spare parts to the services of a car service.

The maximum amount of payments for OSAGO

The amount of compensation for compulsory motor third party liability insurance is not dimensionless and has its own limits. The law establishes, differentiating them according to the type of harm caused. How much is covered by OSAGO after an accident?

  1. If the accident resulted in damage to property, then the maximum possible compensation will be 400 thousand rubles.
  2. If people died or were injured as a result of an accident, then the amount of compensation is 500 thousand rubles.

These amounts are in relation to compensation to each victim, and are not divided between them. Accordingly, each of the victims of the accident can count on a payment of 400 thousand rubles (if this amount is established based on the results of the damage assessment).

Maximum amount of payments under the Europrotocol

In the presence of certain circumstances, participants in an accident can draw up a so-called Euro-protocol. The form of this document is issued together with the CTP policy. It is filled in by drivers on their own without the participation of traffic police officers, if:

  • the number of road accident participants is minimal (2 drivers);
  • no people were injured in the accident;
  • damage was caused only to property;
  • the responsibility of both car owners participating in the accident is insured under the OSAGO program;
  • drivers have no disagreements regarding the circumstances of the accident and the list of damage to the car.

When drawing up the Euro Protocol, the maximum amount of insurance compensation is significantly reduced. It is no longer 400, but 100 thousand rubles.

Health insurance coverage

The consequences of road traffic accidents differ significantly in their nature. Sometimes they can be minor scratches on the car, and sometimes - serious injuries to the driver and passengers. In the latter case, the victims will need money for treatment and health restoration. Consider what is covered by OSAGO in case of harm to health.

The first is the cost of treatment. They are reimbursed on the basis of the submitted documents about the accident, as well as documents from a medical institution. The formula for calculating such costs is quite simple. The medical certificate must contain a list of health injuries. For each of them, there are certain coefficients approved by the Government of the Russian Federation of 15.11.2012 N 1164. These coefficients are multiplied by the sum insured, which is indicated in the insurance contract. Then the numbers obtained for each injury are summed up.

Secondly, the victim is compensated for the lost earnings. As a result of an accident, the victim cannot work for some time, and, accordingly, receives a temporary disability benefit. This benefit is less than a stable salary in terms of size. In addition, the amount of the benefit does not affect the calculation of the indemnity for OSAGO. The amount of insurance payment in this part is determined as a percentage of the victim's average earnings.

All payments are handled by the insurance company responsible for the accident. Accordingly, if necessary, a statement must be written to the address of this company. To do this, you need to find out her contacts in advance.

Thirdly, the victim has the right to claim reimbursement of additional costs. They can occur if:

  • the need for outside patient care;
  • if a stay in a sanatorium is required to restore the body;
  • carrying out prosthetics;
  • purchase of additional food, etc.

The necessity of these expenses must be confirmed by a medical report. On its basis, the insurer will make the required payments.

What if CMTPL does not cover all damage?

Situations are not excluded when the legal limit of the insurance payment cannot cover all the damage that was caused as a result of an accident. First, the insurance companies themselves often underestimate the amount paid. The results of their technical expertise are not always reliable. Secondly, the cost of repairing an expensive car can go beyond the established 400 thousand rubles. What to do in such cases?

  1. If the insurer deliberately pays a smaller amount than is necessary to compensate for the damage in full (or issues a referral for repair, indicating not all the shortcomings to be eliminated), then the victim has a reason to go to court.

To ensure your success in court, order an independent technical review. Of course, initially you will have to pay for it out of your own pocket. But in the future, it will help to confirm the validity of your claims. If the claim is satisfied, then the costs, including the examination, will be reimbursed at the expense of the defendant.

In court, you can collect the amount that is not enough for a full repair of the car or payment for the treatment of the victim. The claim is brought against the insurance company. To represent the interests of the car owner, it is best to contact a good lawyer.
