2.The petitioner had sent a representation on 02.03.2026 followed by a reminder dated 11.03.2026, but the respondent has not taken any action.

3.The contention of the learned counsel for petitioner is that on

11.01.2026 at about 1.40 p.m., while the petitioner was proceeding in his two-wheeler near Pudhupalaiyam bridge, at that time, a car which was proceeding ahead of him, suddenly stopped the car without any indication. The petitioner followed the car from behind and unable to apply brake. Hence, he dashed against the car, fell down and sustained injuries. The petitioner was initially admitted to Government Hospital, Andhiyur and later shifted to E.M.C. hospital, Erode for further treatment, where he took treatment as inpatient from

11.01.2026 to 28.01.2026. The petitioner applied for insurance, at that time, he came to know that a case was registered against him in Crime No.8 of 2026 for offence under Section 281 and 125(a) of BNS, 2023 on the complaint of one Palanisamy, who is the driver of the car and he had given a false version as though the car was parked on the left side of the road with indicator and the petitioner rammed into the car.

4.The learned Additional Public Prosecutor submitted that in this case now investigation is in progress. As on date, the case proceeds on the complaint of Palanisamy. The vehicle was sent for Motor Vehicle Inspection and report obtained on 22.01.2026. The eyewitness present near the scene of accident confirms that near Balaji Hospital, a two wheeler bearing Registration Page3 of 4 No.TN-38-U-7796 rode by the petitioner collided with the electric car bearing Registration No.TN-33-BZ-6048 from the rear side. According to the eyewitness, the car was parked on the left side with indicator.

The person, who is following the vehicle from behind has to be cautious and maintain sufficient distance and to manoeuvre the situation accordingly. It is an admitted case of the petitioner that the petitioner rammed from behind and in such circumstances making allegations against the driver of the car is not proper. In any event, petitioner's representation would be considered during the investigation.
