Jordaan v Road Accident Fund (2022/03746) [2023] ZAGPJHC 1260 (3 October
2023)
In Jordaan v Road Accident Fund, the plaintiff, Jeanine Maria Jordaan, claimed
damages arising from a motor vehicle accident that occurred on 5 May 2018. She
sought compensation for her own injuries and for the loss of support suffered by her
two minor children following the death of the family's breadwinner. The RAF
accepted liability for the accident by conceding that the negligence of its insured
driver was the sole cause.1
Initially, the plaintiff’s particulars of claim indicated a total claim of R2.3 million for
personal injuries and loss of support. However, a day before the default judgment
hearing, the plaintiff served a Rule 28 notice to amend the quantum claimed to R8.85
million. The revised claim included R5 million for past and future medical expenses,
loss of earnings, and general damages, and R3.8 million for loss of support.2
