Summary/Abstract: The legal issue resolved by the commented judgment concerns primarily vehicles that are only the ”base” for the use of specialized devices installed on these vehicles – e.g. cranes, booms, aerial platforms, ex- cavator buckets etc. These vehicles may not move when using these devices in the physical sense (i.e. on wheels or caterpillars) and the element actually in motion is only a specialized machine mountedon the vehicle. The Supreme Court stated that the liability of the insurance company resulting from the contract of compulsory third party liability insurance of motor vehicle owners covers damages caused as a result of the operation of the device installed in the vehicle, also when the vehicle did not fulfill the communication function at the time of the damage.
