Kolizja, na skrzyżowaniu zderzają się samochody. Jeden z nich wpada na sygnalizator świetlny i przewraca go, drugi ścina znak drogowy. Z rozbitych aut sypie się szkło, na jezdnię wylewają się jakieś płyny. Czy zastanawialiście się kiedyś, kto pokryje koszty sprzątnięcia zanieczyszczeń z jezdni i naprawy infrastruktury drogowej?
The text discusses who is responsible for covering the costs of repairing damaged road infrastructure after a car accident. It explains that typically, the road authority is responsible for these costs, but if a driver is at fault, they should bear the expenses. The article references a court case in Opole where a cleaning company sued the driver's insurance for over 7,000 zł, and the Supreme Court ruled that the driver and their insurance should cover the costs. However, the ruling is not binding on all courts, leading to inconsistencies in how such cases are handled. The text also highlights the potential impact on insurance companies and suggests a better insurance system to penalize reckless drivers. Additionally, it proposes linking driving records to license renewals to improve road safety.
