What is the punishment for 'Hit & Run' case and a pure accident case in India? I need the comparison.
Usually, the hit and run cases in the country, can be booked under two categories: Section 279 or 304(A) of Indian Penal code and also under 134A and 134B of Indian Motor Vehicle (IMV) Act.Cases of rash driving or driving on footpaths can be booked under section 279 of IPC. If proven guilty, the accused will face a minimum of six years of imprisonment or/and pay hefty fines. However the accused can get bail.Death caused by a negligent act can be booked under section 304(A) of IPC. Punishment includes minimum of two years of imprisonment and/or paying of fines. In such cases also, the accused is eligible to get bail.An accident, severely injuring the victim, thus endangering his life or a rash act coming in the way of personal safety of others, can be booked under section 338 of IPC. The accused will face a minimum of two years of imprisonment along with fine; he is again eligible to get bail.Under Sections 134(A) and (B) of the IMV Act, the accused can get punishment, varying from three months to three years, and he is liable to pay compensation to the victims.According to section 187of IMV Act, punishment for offences related to accident, include a prison term of minimum three years, or/and a fine. This is also a bailable offence.So, in the current scenario, if proven guilty, the driver is liable to be punished both under the IPC and the IMV Act.Since the owner of the car was driving it, he might face three years prison term and is also liable to pay compensation for the victims.In extreme cases, police can even book an accident cases under Section 302, a section that is dedicated to murder. If a case is booked under this section, the accused may even get a death sentence or life-term imprisonment. But the victims don’t get any compensation, in these cases.
