The table is divided into sections depending on the type of accident. You can go to the index on page 4 of the file and select the type of accident from the following:

- Vehicles in circulation in the same direction

- Vehicles in circulation in the process of reverse

- Vehicles coming from different routes

- Vehicles parked or stopped

- Special Cases

- Shock chain

- Special cases of accidents involving two-wheeled vehicles

How to interpret the drawings?

The vehicles are identified as X and Y and in cases of shock in jail, they are labeled A, B and C

Below the letters, there are numbers 0, 1, and split (1 / 2, 3 / 4, …). If under the letter indicates “0″ means that this car had no responsibility in the accident. If a different number, the total liability for the accident will be if the number is “1″ or if it is split, the responsibility is shared.
