The tjónaskýrsla is the official insurance claim form used after a traffic accident in Iceland. It's crucial for both parties to fill it out and sign it at the scene, as it documents the details of the incident and initiates the insurance claim process, helping to prevent future disputes.
While the driver is responsible for their actions, in Iceland, the owner of the vehicle is generally primarily liable for damages caused by their vehicle, especially if the driver had permission. However, the driver's actions, particularly gross negligence, can significantly impact who ultimately bears the cost through 'endurkrafa'.
'Endurkrafa' refers to an insurance company's right to reclaim money paid out for damages from the driver if the accident was caused by their gross negligence, such as driving under the influence (DUI) or extreme speeding. While the victim is compensated, the negligent driver can be held personally responsible by the insurance company.
If an accident is caused by a driver's gross negligence, such as driving intoxicated, the insurance company will still pay the victim for their damages. However, they reserve the right to pursue 'endurkrafa' (regress) against the negligent driver to recover the funds they paid out, making the driver personally liable for the costs.
Having both parties sign the tjónaskýrsla confirms mutual agreement on the documented facts of the accident at the scene. This helps prevent disputes later, streamlines the insurance claim process, and ensures an accurate record for all involved, aiding in a smoother resolution.
By completing Insurance & Liability, you will gain stronger rule knowledge, faster recognition of signs and situations, better decision making in traffic scenarios, and increased accuracy on exam style questions used in Iceland. These outcomes directly support higher scoring exam performance.
