DR 482 RR GP. The collision occurred on the side of the road a few metres from
the house owned and registered in the name of Mrs M, the wife of Mr M. and this is
after Mr. Ros had lost control of the motor vehicle which also resulted in him
colliding with a boundary wall of the house owned by Mrs M. Mr M suffered a broken
leg because of the collision and now seeks to institute a claim for damages against
Mr. Dee Ros, including medical costs in the amount of R130 000,00.
The costs to repair the damage to the wall was quoted to Mrs M as amounting to
R68 000,00 and she seeks to institute legal action for these damages as well. Mr M
and Mrs M now approach you for advice following a referral from a mutual friend
and Mr M’s instructions are for you to institute legal action against Mr. Deen Ros
for his negligent driving that resulted in the personal injury damages he has
suffered, and Mrs M seeks to sue for the costs to repair the damages to the
boundary wall of her property.
