89737 A car making a U-turn collides with a motorcycle traveling straight ahead, killing the motorcyclist. 251108 Sat Incident Summary Location/Circumstances: Intersection with permanent U-turns. Signal Flow: Yellow → Imminent left turn signal. Key Facts: The motorcycle proceeded without stopping on the yellow light, while the car began a U-turn just as the left turn signal turned on. The two sides collided at the intersection, killing the motorcyclist. Preliminary Decision: Both the police and insurance company ruled the motorcycle 100% at fault and the car not at fault. Detailed Timeline 00:00~: Explained that even with permanent U-turns, it is safer to make a turn when the vehicle ahead is turning left acts as a "shield." At this point, the signal changed from yellow to left. The motorcycle approached without stopping. The vehicles ahead turning left stopped upon seeing the motorcycle. The car immediately began a U-turn, resulting in a collision and fatality. 01:21~: The insurance company also maintains a 100% exemption from liability for the motorcycle. However, due to the possibility of a court ruling, they mentioned a 100:0 ratio or (motorcycle 80-90%): (black box 10-20) scenario. The insurance company stated they would not pay, and a lawsuit would be necessary. 02:43~: Explanation of damages and litigation risks. For young people, the damages could be around 600 million won. Even if the victim is 70% at fault and 30% at fault, the damages would be around 200 million won. If a 200 million won claim is lost, the initial trial will cost approximately 10 million won, and an additional 10 million won will be charged on appeal. Additional costs may be incurred on appeal. Some lawyers point out that accepting the "I'll take it if I win" approach is irresponsible. 03:57~: Attorney Han Moon-cheol realistically assesses the likelihood of losing and recommends further consultation with another lawyer. However, if the bereaved family is willing to accept the costs for emotional relief, a lawsuit is possible. Insurance companies appoint specialized attorneys, so filing a lawsuit alone is disadvantageous. Summary of Issues Yellow Traffic Light Obligation Motorcyclists are generally required to stop when a traffic light turns yellow → Basis for evaluating a traffic light violation. However, if the situation is "just after the light turns," there's some room for additional due diligence (reconfirming forward safety) for the black light vehicle. Ultimately, the dispute is between no-fault and partial negligence (10-20%). Duty to Check Safety for U-Turning Vehicles Even when making a U-turn, conservative assessments of the speed and distance of approaching motorcycles should be made. Timing when a left-turning vehicle blocks the path ahead is relatively safe. Negligence Scenario Practice (Police/Insurance): 100% for motorcycles. Likelihood of Trial: 80-90% for motorcycles: 10-20% for black light vehicles, with the possibility of partial negligence. Litigation Strategy/Risk Current Situation: Insurance company refuses payment → Bereaved family needs to file suit. Amount Scale: Approximately KRW 600 million+ in damages for a fatal accident. A mere 20% change in negligence can result in hundreds of millions of won. Cost Risk: If you lose, the other party will be responsible for legal fees (approximately KRW 10 million in the first trial, plus additional costs in the appeal/submission). Decision Points: If you're focused on practical gains, proceed cautiously. If you're seeking emotional relief, be prepared to accept the costs. Avoid "win-or-lose" offers; re-consultation with a specialist attorney is recommended. Checklist for Recurrence Prevention U-turns when a left-turning vehicle blocks your path (effectively blocking vehicle access). U-turns when pedestrians are crossing at a pedestrian signal (restricting vehicle access). U-turns should be made after additional verification, especially immediately after the traffic light turns. Assume that the approaching motorcycle is always faster. Conclusion Currently, the police and insurance companies determine 100% fault for motorcycles and no-fault for blackouts. However, the courts may find 10-20% fault for blackouts, leaving the outcome uncertain. While litigation is possible, the risk of loss and high costs is significant. Therefore, it's advisable to consult with an expert before making a decision, depending on your goals (profit vs. emotional relief).
