Compensation according to the 2024 traffic scale: concrete examples
The 2024 traffic compensation scale sets specific amounts for injuries and damages resulting from accidents. For example, a cervicalgia (whiplash) with 45 days of medical leave can result in compensation of between €3,200 and €4,500, depending on the degree of basic and particular personal harm and the number of days incapacitated. In the case of a radius fracture with surgery and 90 days of temporary disability, the amount can exceed €8,000. Additionally, a permanent injury (for example, moderate functional limitation in a limb) can exceed €10,000 depending on the points assigned on the scale and the victim's age. These figures are indicative and must be adjusted to each specific case, always based on the current legal scale.
How to claim compensation for a traffic accident in Arganda del Rey: local procedure
If you have suffered a traffic accident in Arganda del Rey, the usual procedure begins with a prior claim to the insurer, which has a maximum period of three months to issue a reasoned offer. If the company's response is unsatisfactory or not received within the deadline, you may go to court. The claim is filed before the Courts of First Instance and Instruction of Arganda del Rey (C/ Camino del Molino, 3, 28500), the competent authority for these matters in the municipality.
The period for legal action is one year from the stabilization of injuries, meaning from the date of medical discharge or recovery. Depending on the severity of the accident, the claim may be processed via civil proceedings (compensation for damages) or, in cases of criminal offense (e.g., driving under the influence of alcohol), through criminal proceedings. However, in most minor accidents or those with temporary injuries, the civil route is followed before the local courts.
