Dear forum,
My car had an accident. It was hit by a tree branch that
fell when it was parked in a HDB carpark near a
tree.
I wish to seek your opinion on compensation, if that is
possible.
1. If the branch seems like rotten, is there a chance to get
compensation?
2. who can I ask for compensation?
3. trees are all over singapore planted by ..... and we
cannot remove a tree if we want. So many trees are planted along
car parks. If a branch falls on a resident's car, is it not
compensatable?
4. based on your knowledge , if it is not fault
of mine, how will my car insurance be affected?
Hope to get some advise.
regards
an unfortunate hdb resident.
Trees under jurisdiction of NParks. But very unlikely the tree
is rotten, if it's rotten, the whole tree will come crashing down
instead of just only a branch.
These kind of things, if the damage is serious, LPPL self-claim
lo. I don't think your insurance coverage includes 'Tree deciding
to shed it's branch'. Can't be helped one lah, this kind of thing
very heng suay. Maybe next time park MSCP?
