Question

DentroTest · Accepted Answer

In all public passenger transport, the damages suffered by passengers are covered by the compulsory passenger insurance (SOV) under the Land Transport Organization Act (LOTT), Article 21(1), so all the passengers on the bus must be protected by the SOV. This insurance is independent of the compulsory motor third-party liability insurance (SOA) of the motor vehicle and is intended to compensate the bodily injuries suffered by passengers in an accident. Requiring only the vehicle's SOA is not enough, and limiting the SOV to interurban journeys is a mistake, because it applies to all public passenger transport.
