Legislator summary

AI generated

The Insurance Court ruled that traffic insurance compensation must be aggregated with benefits paid to the insurer under accident insurance regulations. The plaintiff argued for separate treatment of the compensation, while the insurer claimed the amounts should be combined due to their nature. The court decided that because the insurer received the funds, the total compensation must be considered as a single sum to prevent double recovery.

Liikennevakuutuslain mukainen korvaus oli otettava yhteensovituksessa huomioon sen suuruisena kuin se oli myönnetty, vaikka osa korvauksesta oli regressisäännösten nojalla maksettu tapaturmavakuutuslain mukaista päivärahaa ja elinkorkoa suorittaneelle vakuutusyhtiölle. IV -jaosto Työeläke 1/71
