Rio Grande do Norte judicial rulings

Overview

The State of Rio Grande do Norte has been ordered by the 3rd Court of the Ceará-Mirim Comarca to pay compensation and pensions following a fatal 2018 accident involving a prison system vehicle.

The collision occurred on the BR-405 highway when a prison vehicle performed an illegal overtaking maneuver and struck a motorcycle. The accident resulted in the deaths of a 19-year-old woman and her child.

Judge Airton Pinheiro ruled that while the state vehicle was imprudent, there was concurrent fault because the motorcyclist lacked a driver's license and the occupants were not wearing helmets. Moral damages were set at R$ 50,000, and the state is required to pay monthly pensions to the beneficiaries of the deceased.
