I was involved in an accident where the FIR states me as the fault vehicle ( i was the driver). The other person has filed case against me and my insurance company (oriental insurance) under MV act section 166 for medical claims and injury compensation. The paper which came from the court clearly mentioned that i have to be present in the court on the particular date.
My insurance company says that i dont have to bother, and since i have insurance and drivng license, they will take care of everything.
My question is:
1.do i have to attend court on the date of the hearing and all future dates that come up.
2. can i trust the insurance company when they say that they will take care of everything since i have a policy in effect on the accident date and my driving license too is valid.
Pls let me know anything else i should be aware of..
Thanks,
Ram
