Jeju Traffic Accident Attorney | Defending a Client Charged With Violation of the Act on Special Cases concerning the Settlement of Traffic Accidents and Obtaining a No Referral Disposition

The client who came to the Jeju traffic accident attorney entrusted the defense of the case to Daeryun LLC after being accused of violating the Act on Special Cases concerning the Settlement of Traffic Accidents.

The traffic accident attorney set out to understand the client's case in order to provide a defense.

The client faced an allegation that, while driving, the client had recklessly cut in front of the other vehicle, posed a threat, and caused a traffic accident that injured the driver of that vehicle.

However, the client represented by the Jeju traffic accident attorney denied all of the alleged facts.

The client stated that, after turning on the turn signal to change into the lane in which the other vehicle was traveling and having nearly completed entering that lane, the other vehicle suddenly sounded its horn and accelerated rapidly, striking the rear bumper of the client's vehicle with its front bumper.

Accordingly, the client represented by the Jeju traffic accident attorney argued that this incident was not a matter of suddenly cutting in front of the other vehicle, but rather a traffic accident that occurred while the other vehicle accelerated rapidly and obstructed the client's lane change.

■🔗Act on Special Cases concerning the Settlement of Traffic Accidents, Article 3 (Special Cases concerning Punishment) (1) Where the driver of a vehicle commits the crime under Article 268 of the Criminal Act as a result of a traffic accident, the driver shall be punished by imprisonment without labor for up to five years or a fine of up to 20 million won.

■Criminal Act, Article 268 (Occupational or Gross Negligence Resulting in Death or Injury) A person who, through occupational negligence or gross negligence, causes the death of or injury to another shall be punished by imprisonment without labor for up to five years or a fine of up to 20 million won.

The client represented by the Jeju traffic accident attorney faced the risk of being punished by imprisonment without labor for up to five years or a fine of up to 20 million won if the alleged facts were established.

The Jeju traffic accident attorney undertook the defense for the client as follows.

The police, having heard the arguments of the Jeju traffic accident attorney, issued a no-referral disposition with respect to the client.

This was thanks to the traffic accident attorney's demonstration that the client had no intent to cause the accident. A traffic accident can occur suddenly.

As with the client in this case, a situation can arise in which a person unjustly becomes a suspect even though the accident occurred due to the reckless acceleration of the other vehicle.
