The Supreme Court has held that future prospects of a road
crush victims must be taken into account while computing the amount of
compensation under the Motor Vehicle Act, and the Court modified the guidelines
to include the possibility of future increases in the victim’s income as well
as improvement in his living standards. At present compensation is awarded
based on the victims income, personal living expenses and other factors at the
time of death.
