In the given facts, the legal heirs have to file the petition against the owner of the offending vehicle and his insurer under section 166 of MV Act and all factors like salary, future prospects and his skill have to be mentioned therein including the fact of rash and negligent driving of college student coming from wrong side on U turn.
