The Supreme Administrative Court dismissed the claim for insurance payment regarding a motorcycle accident occurring on a closed motocross track. The applicant argued the accident happened during training, but the court found the use of the uninsured motorcycle on a monitored, closed circuit constituted traffic activity under the Traffic Insurance Act. Consequently, the court ruled that the payment of the insurance benefit must be revoked because the activity did not qualify as non-traffic use.

N oli kaatunut kilpailuharjoituksissa rekisteröimättömällä motocross-moottoripyörällään, johon ei ollut otettu liikennevakuutusta. Koska asiassa oli esitetty selvitys siitä, että moottoripyörää oli käytetty vain kilpailu- ja harjoitusajoihin suljetulla sekä asianmukaisesti merkityllä ja valvotulla motocross-radalla, oli moottoripyörän käyttö tapahtunut liikennevakuutuslain 2 §:n 4 kohdassa tarkoitetulla liikenteestä eristetyllä alueella. Kun asiassa ei muutoinkaan ollut ilmennyt, että moottoripyörää olisi käytetty liikenteessä, liikennevakuutusmaksua vastaavan hyvikeen maksuunpano oli kumottava.
