As winter approaches in earnest, ski resorts are opening one after another.
Accidents caused by mistakes while skiing can turn into nightmares, so caution is required.
If you collide with each other at the ski resort and injure the other person, you may be held liable for civil and criminal liability.
In fact, in 2015, Mr. A was sentenced to a fine of 1 million won for an accident in which he crashed into a passer-by at a ski resort.
The victim was injured for two weeks in the accident, but the court admitted that Mr. A, who was in the rear, had a duty of care to control the direction and speed while watching the front.
In such cases, it may even lead to civil damages.
However, the percentage of compensation for damages varies depending on the degree of negligence of the victim.
There is a precedent in which the court recognized 30% of the fault of the user who fell down in an accident in which he fell while getting off the slope and was hit by a follower.
The idea was that there was a responsibility to stand up and defend against the accident as quickly as possible.
