Abstract
virtud a la incorporación del cuarto párrafo del artículo 17 del DS 024-2002-MTC, existe
una incertidumbre jurídica respecto a si la cobertura del Seguro Obligatorio contra Accidente
de Tránsito (SOAT) debe extenderse también a los ocupantes de un vehículo no asegurado ante
la colisión con un vehículo asegurado. Al respecto, las Compañías de Seguro sostienen que
dicho seguro no contempla a las víctimas que se transportaban en el vehículo no asegurado en
virtud a que el mismo no cuenta con un seguro, no formando parte del riesgo asegurado. Sin
embargo, es menester señalar que el SOAT tiene por finalidad resguardar los derechos de vida
e integridad personal, teniendo una naturaleza de carácter social.
En virtud a ello, el presente informe tiene por finalidad determinar cómo debe interpretarse el
cuarto párrafo del artículo señalado mediante diversos métodos interpretativos contemplados
en la doctrina jurídica. Para así, demostrar que el método interpretativo aplicable es una
interpretación sistemática y finalista de la norma, por la cual se reconoce que la obligación de
la aseguradora presente al momento del siniestro de indemnizará a todas las víctimas,
incluyendo a los ocupantes del vehículo no asegurado; y por la cual, se faculta a esta para
repetir contra los responsables solidarios señalado en la norma. Esto último como un medio
para restituir a la aseguradora los gastos incurridos por el riesgo inicialmente no asegurado.
By virtue of the incorporation of the fourth paragraph of Article 17 of DS 024-2002-MTC, there is a legal uncertainty as to whether the coverage of the Compulsory Traffic Accident Insurance (SOAT) must also be extended to the occupants of an uninsured vehicle in the event of a collision with an insured vehicle. In this regard, the insurance companies maintain that such insurance does not cover victims who were transported in the uninsured vehicle because it does not have insurance, not forming part of the insured risk. However, it is worth noting that the purpose of SOAT is to safeguard the rights to life and personal integrity, having a social character. Accordingly, the purpose of this report is to determine how the fourth paragraph of the article referred to should be interpreted by means of various interpretative methods provided for in legal doctrine. To demonstrate that the applicable interpretative method is a systematic and final interpretation of the rule, which recognizes that the obligation of the insurer present at the time of the claim will compensate all victims, including the occupants of the uninsured vehicle; and by which, it is empowered to repeat against those jointly and severally liable as stated in the standard. This latter method makes it possible to refund to the insurer the expenses incurred by the initially uninsured risk.
