Please accept my apology for the delay regarding this matter.
I have referred the matter to our legal department and unfortunately the calculation below is correct.
A driver is entitled to assume that other road users will act reasonably unless there is some circumstance, which warns or ought to serve as a warning to him, that the other road users may act unreasonably. This does not relieve a driver from his duty to be vigilant so as to be in a position to take steps to avoid a collision should the driver of the other vehicle act unreasonably.
In light of the above and the position of the impact on both vehicles, we tender a settlement of ……70/30 %
apportionment in your favour.
Settlement calculation: 6Our damage = R34029.00 repairs to truck + R42775.00 repairs to crane = R76804.00 X 30% = R23041.20.
Your damages R34700.00 market value – 40% salvage value = R20820.00 X 70% = R14574.00...
Our Nett offer = minus R8467.20.
Based on the above calculation, you will owe an amount of R8467.20 to Old Mutual Insure.
In order to settle this matter amicably, we suggest that each party bears their own cost./
