Legal proceedings after a road accident
My Vehicle met with an accident when a motor bike rider turned the vehicle and stopped across in the middle of the road all of a sudden and was talking to some other person on other side of the road. I applied brake immediately, tried to control the vehicle at my best but couldn't avoid an accident. After Accident immediately we requested for an ambulance. They both were not wearing helmets, they were in conscious state while shifting into ambulance. In meantime police was passing by and they also almost noticed the incident live. They said that You Tried your best to stop and said that due to the bikers irresponsible driving, accident has caused. Police themselves arranged us a vehicle to continue our further journey as i was travelling with my wife and kid. They asked me to come the next day to Police station. They have took my vehicle to PS along with the Bike.
Next Day when i went to police station they said that an FIR has been lodged against you stating as rash driving ( Which i haven't). I have all the Valid Documents of my vehicle ( Driving License, RC, Comprehensive Insurance, Pollution, moreover we were wearing our seat belts).
What will be the next course of action? How to get my vehicle back from PS? They are dealing all in the local language and i don't know the local language.
Pls Help Me.
The above incident happened in North Karnataka National Highway.
