Question

DentroTest · Accepted Answer

Article 6 of the Regulation on Compulsory Passenger Insurance (SOV) includes persons holding a paid or free transport ticket and minors exempt from paying a fare. Its paragraph 3 also includes the personnel engaged in operating the vehicle, so the driver is insured. The coverage is not limited to passengers and does not exclude someone for traveling free of charge in an authorized way. Nor does it mean covering without conditions every person who travels without a ticket: the requirements of the regulation must be met and it must be a protected accident.
