1. How the Client Came to Seek a Pohang Traffic Accident Attorney
The client, facing a prosecutorial investigation following a vehicle collision, requested the assistance of a Pohang traffic accident attorney in order to defend against punishment.
The Client Who Requested the Assistance of a Pohang Traffic Accident Attorney
This is the account of the client who requested the assistance of a Pohang traffic accident attorney.
On the day of the incident, the client was driving to a meeting place.
While the client was making a U-turn at a permitted U-turn zone, a collision occurred with a vehicle coming from the opposite direction.
Because the other vehicle had violated a traffic signal, the client believed that the other vehicle bore the greater share of the fault.
However, on the ground that the client had crossed the center line while making the U-turn, the client was also found to be at fault and came under investigation for 🔗the Act on Special Cases concerning the Settlement of Traffic Accidentsresulting in injury.
To defend against this, the client came to a Pohang traffic accident attorney and requested assistance.
The Laws Relevant to the Case, Explained by a Pohang Traffic Accident Attorney
The Act on Special Cases concerning the Settlement of Traffic Accidents is a special act provided separately from the Road Traffic Act.
Most 🔗traffic accident disputesare handled under the Act on Special Cases concerning the Settlement of Traffic Accidents.
The client's case as well involved an impending investigation for a violation of the Act on Special Cases concerning the Settlement of Traffic Accidents.
A violation of the Act on Special Cases concerning the Settlement of Traffic Accidents resulting in injury is governed by the following laws.
▶ Act on Special Cases concerning the Settlement of Traffic Accidents, Article 1 (Purpose)
▶ Act on Special Cases concerning the Settlement of Traffic Accidents, Article 3 (Special Cases concerning Punishment)
※ Criminal Act, Article 268 : A person who, through occupational negligence or gross negligence, causes the death of or injury to another is punishable by imprisonment without labor for not more than 5 years or a fine not exceeding 20 million won.
2. The Assistance Provided by the Pohang Traffic Accident Attorney
The Pohang traffic accident attorney formed a task force composed of professionals in the relevant field and examined the case closely.
To defend against punishment, the attorney then gathered the factors that would work in the client's favor and provided the following assistance.
The Pohang Traffic Accident Attorney's Assistance ① | Denial of the Alleged Facts
This case proceeded on the premise that the victim's injury resulted from the client's fault in crossing the center line.
However, although the client acknowledges crossing the center line, there is no causal relationship between that act and the victim's injury.
On this argument, the Pohang traffic accident attorney denied the facts alleged against the client.
The Pohang Traffic Accident Attorney's Assistance ② | Emphasis on the Victim's Fault
The client made the U-turn in an area where both U-turns and left turns are permitted, and proceeded with the U-turn after the signal for the vehicle ahead had turned yellow.
In contrast, the victim drove straight through in the opposite lane in violation of the traffic signal.
The attorney therefore emphasized that, had the victim not entered in violation of the signal, this accident would not have occurred or would not have resulted in injury.
3. The Result of the Pohang Traffic Accident Attorney's Assistance, “No Right to Prosecute”
Accepting the Pohang traffic accident attorney's argument, the prosecution ultimately issued a decision of "no right to prosecute" regarding the client's charge.
