In traffic accidents, how do the traffic police divide the size of responsibility?

Mondo Social Updated on 2024-02-05

In traffic accidents, the division of responsibility by the traffic police is mainly based on the following aspects:

Whether the party has violated the rules: This is the basis for the determination of liability, and if there is no violation, there is no question of liability.

Whether there is a causal link between the violation and the accident: If there is a causal relationship between the party's violation and the traffic accident, then the party should be liable.

How much of a violation plays a role in an accident: this is the key to determining the extent to which the person is specifically liable. If the violation plays a large role in the accident, then the responsibility borne by the party is correspondingly greater; If the violation plays a small role in the accident, then the liability of the party is correspondingly smaller.

According to the above principles, traffic accident liability is divided into full liability, primary liability, equal liability and secondary liability. Among them, if the road traffic accident is caused by the fault of one party, it shall bear full responsibility; If a road traffic accident occurs due to the fault of two or more parties, they shall bear primary responsibility, equal responsibility and secondary responsibility respectively according to the effect of their actions on the accident and the severity of the fault; If one party intentionally causes a road traffic accident, the other party is not liable. If none of the parties is at fault for causing the road traffic accident, none of the parties is liable if it is a traffic accident.

In practice, the traffic police will collect evidence through the investigation of the accident scene, investigation and evidence collection, and the questioning of the parties and relevant witnesses, and divide the responsibility for the accident according to the above principles. If there is any objection to the division of responsibility of the traffic police, you can submit a written application for review to the traffic management department of the higher public security organ within three days from the date of receipt of the certificate.
