Legislator summary

AI generated

The Tribunal da Relação do Porto revoked the lower court's decision regarding a vehicle collision where specific details of the impact were unproven. Both drivers were presumed at fault, and the court determined that without evidence distinguishing the cause, their contributions to the accident must be considered equal. Consequently, the original ruling on liability allocation was overturned to reflect this equal gradation of fault.

SUMÁRIO

Faltando a prova sobre como ocorreu a colisão entre dois veículos e não se mostrando ilidida a culpa presuntiva de ambos os condutores, também comissários, considera-se igual a medida de contribuição de cada um dos carros para o acidente.
