Plaintiff

ROAD ACCIDENT FUND	Defendant

J U D G M E N T

MAKGOKA. J:

[1] This is an action for damages in terms of the Road Accident Fund Act, 56 of 1996, as amended (the Act) pursuant to a motor vehicle collision on 29 April 2007. The plaintiff, then 23 years old, was a passenger in a vehicle which collided with another. She was treated at a hospital and discharged the same date. According to the neurosurgeon report, she sustained a closed head injury with frontal wounds. She has a frontal lobe or intracranial injury, the symptoms of which are persistent headache, tinnitus and amnesia. Her current complaints include chronic headache, itching of the scars on the forehead, tinnitus, rumination about the accident, itching of the scars on the forehead, backache, and anosmia. She also suffers from post­ concussive syndrome and post-traumatic anxiety. The key question for determination is whether the plaintiff would, but for the accident, attained a university degree or only a diploma.

2

[2] The defendant has conceded full liability for the plaintiff's proven damages. The plaintiff's general damages have been agreed upon in the amount of R300 000. With regard to future medical expenses, the defendant has agreed to furnish the
plaintiff with an undertaking in terms of s 17(4)(a) of the Act. Accordingly, the only issue for determination is the quantum for loss of earnings or earning capacity.

[3] The plaintiff is currently 32 years old. She is divorced and has two minor children. She matriculated in 2007, the same year in which she sustained the injuries. Below I make a comparison of the percentages achieved by the plaintiff in grade 11 and her final matric results:

Subject	Grade 11 (Pre-accident)	Grade 12 (Post-accident) Xitsonga	78%	c (60%-69%)
English	60%	F (33,3%-39%)

Agricultural Science     58%	F (33,3%-39%)

Business Economics   55%	E (40%-49%)

Economics	45%	E (40%-49%)

Biblical Studies	70%	c (60%-69%)
Mercantile Law	53%	E (40%-49%)

[4] In the same year she matriculated, the plaintiff obtained a short diploma in office computing. She registered for a diploma in human resources management, which she did not complete, supposedly because of memory impairment problems. She was later employed as a cashier at a supermarket chain store, but had to stop working in 2012, again, supposedly because of repeated forgetfulness as a result of her injuries. In 2013 she was employed at a tea packaging company, which she also had to quit because of persistent headaches. In 2014 she found employment at a retail store, where she is still employed to date. According to the relevant reports of the experts, the plaintiff is struggling to cope even in her current position as she

3

makes a lot of mistakes resulting in cash shortages. According to those reports, she has been issued with a reprimand letter for warning.

(5] The plaintiff was born into a family of six children. Her mother has no formal education. She is self-employed, doing recycling and washing dishes. Her father, who passed away in 2015, completed grade 8 and had been employed by a municipality. None of her siblings had acquired any post-matric qualification. In fact, only two of her siblings passed matric. The others only reached the grades below matric. As a result, none of them are employed in any professional occupation. For the plaintiff, two scenarios are postulated for her likely career path, were it not been for the accident. According to this postulation, the plaintiff would have been able to enter the labour market either as an attorney or an advocate, earning accordingly at entry level, and increasing her earnings as she gained more experience, until retirement. On the other hand, on behalf of the defendant it is postulated that the plaintiff would only have achieved a diploma, and at most, a general university degree.

[6] Six  witnesses testified. Mrs Paulina Mukansi (the plaintiff s mother) Ms Reneilwe Ndlovu, Dr Masello Matlala (educational psychologist) and Dr Malaka (industrial psychologist) all testified in the plaintiffs case. For the defendant, Ms Linda De Rooster (educational psychologist) and Mrs Cecile Nel (industrial psychologist) testified. It is not necessary to set out in any detail, the evidence led during the trial. What follows is a summary of that evidence.

[7] The plaintiffs mother, Mrs Mukansi, testified that before the accident, the plaintiff performed 'well' at school. She had never repeated a grade. After the accident, she became forgetful and lost interest in her studies. She further testified that the plaintiffs dream was always to become a lawyer. As a result, the plaintiff s father had been saving money for her studies. The plaintiff s ambition of becoming a lawyer was confirmed by the second witness, Ms Reneilwe Ndlovu. She works for a firm of attorneys as a general worker. She testified that the plaintiff had visited the firm in 2007 to know more about legal practice. She referred the plaintiff to the professional staff.

[8] Dr Matlala, an educational psychologist, prepared a report on behalf of the plaintiff, in which she evaluated the plaintiff's pre-accident, post-accident cognitive, emotional and educational potential as well as future occupational endeavours. She concluded that the plaintiff was of average intellectual ability. Pre-morbid, she would probably have passed matric with university entrance to study for a degree or diploma at a tertiary institution. For that conclusion, she took into consideration a number of factors, among which, the plaintiff's grade 11 results. I shall revert to this aspect later.

[9] Furthermore, Dr Matlala also took into account what she considered to be the plaintiff's self-drive. She pointed out that despite the plaintiff having had to quit school because of pregnancy, she managed to return to school to complete her matric, which Dr Matlala found to be demonstrative of her aptitude. Furthermore, she took into account the fact that the plaintiff managed to obtain a short diploma in office computing, after the accident. According to her, the plaintiff has the aptitude, intrinsic motivation and confidence to have attained a degree. The above factors would, according to Dr Matlala, made the plaintiff an exception to her siblings, who, as indicated earlier, neither of them had obtained tertiary education. Dr Matlala also considered letters from the primary school and secondary school which the plaintiff attended. In those letters, the plaintiff was described in laudatory terms.

(10] Dr Malaka, an industrial psychologist, prepared a report on behalf of the plaintiff, the purpose of which is to postulate what the plaintiff's likely career path and earning capacity would have been, but for the accident and the injuries suffered by her. Dr Malaka concluded that the plaintiff would have completed her educational career and resuming .work in the open labour market as an attorney or advocate, had the accident not occurred. She would have been able to work until the retirement age, health and other aspects of life permitting. Post morbid, the plaintiff would be able to partake in an open labour market but in a sympathetic type of employment, given her physical and neuropsychological ailments. According to Dr Malaka, the plaintiff has a diminished work capacity, which has rendered her vulnerable.

5

[11]  Ms De Rooster, educational psychologist, testified on behalf of the defendant as to the impact of the accident on the plaintiff's education and training possibilities, as well as the plaintiff's cognitive functioning. She concluded that the plaintiff was a person of average cognitive abilities pre-accident and that she would probably have been able to progress up to grade 12 with diploma endorsement in a mainstream school, but for the accident. Ms De Rooster further testified that the plaintiff would probably have been able to complete a diploma course (NQF6) successfully, if she received the financial aid she would have needed. Her socio-economic circumstances, and the effects of disadvantaged education, might have caused a delay in the completion of her studies.

[12) Ms De Rooster differed with Dr Matlala as to what tertiary qualification the plaintiff would probably have achieved. She was quite strong in her opinion that, given her poor socio-economic background, the fact that no one in her family had progressed beyond matric, her limited exposure to English, are all factors which militate against the  proposition that the plaintiff would have attained a university degree. Ms De Rooster further emphasised the fact that the plaintiff has not been able to realize her pre-accident potential, and attained matric with lower marks than she anticipated, she still remained very much an average pupil. In this regard, Ms De Rooster pointed out that the plaintiff's grade 11 results were below average.

[13) Mrs Cecile Nel, an industrial psychologist who testified on behalf of the defendant, allowed for the possibility of the plaintiff acquiring either a degree or diploma.

[14) It is against the evidence that I have to consider the plaintiff's loss of earning capacity. The assessment of future loss of earning capacity presents obvious difficulties. These were discussed in Southern Insurance Association Limited v Bailey NO (supra) at 113F-114E where Nicholas JA stated as follows:
'Any enquiry into damages for loss of earning capacity is of its nature speculative, because it involves a prediction as to the future, without the benefit of crystal balls, soothsayers, augurs or oracles. All the Court can do is to make an estimate, which is often a very rough estimate, of the present value of the loss. It is open to it two possible approaches. One is for the Judge to make a round estimate of an amount which seems to him to be fair and reasonable. That is entirely a matter of guesswork, a blind plunge into the unknown. The

6

other is to try to make an assessment, by way of mathematical calculations, on the basis of assumptions resting on the evidence. The validity of this approach depends of course upon the soundness of the assumptions, and these may vary from the strongly probable to the speculative. It is manifest that either approach involves guesswork to a greater or lesser extent.'

(15] The approach to calculating loss is trite and established: (a) calculate the present value of the income which the plaintiff would have earned but for the injuries and consequent disability; (b) calculate the present value of the plaintiff's estimated future income, if any, having regard to the disability; (c) subtract the figure obtained under (b) from that obtained under (a); (d) adjust the figure obtained as a result of this subtraction in the light of all relevant factors and contingencies (Gauntlett Quantum of Damages, Vol 1 (4ed) at 48. See also See also D'Hooghe v Road Accident Fund 201O (6J2) QOD 1 (ECP) para 19.

(16] In the present matter, the dispute revolves  around  the  plaintiff's  probable career path, had the accident not occurred. As is apparent from the reports of the two educational psychologists, Dr Matlala and Ms De Rooster, the question is whether the plaintiff would have progressed to university degree or would have reached her educational plateau at diploma level. On the one spectrum is a scenario in which the plaintiff would have pursued a degree in law and qualified to practice as an advocate or an attorney. On the other hand, the defendant postulates that the plaintiff would have obtained only a diploma.

(17] In my view, the probability of the plaintiff qualifying either as an attorney or an advocate seems far-fetched. When one considers her grade 11 results, I am inclined to agree with Ms De Rooster that the plaintiff was, pre-accident, very much an average pupil. If those marks are anything to go by, the plaintiff would most certainly have struggled with a law degree, or any specialized degree. It would have been a different situation had she, for example, been injured in her second or third year of her studies in law, or as correctly pointed out by Mr Williams, had one of her parents been a legal practitioner.

7

[18) Having said that, I do not think it would be unrealistic to suggest that she could have obtained another degree, perhaps in social sciences or the arts. Ms De Rooster could not explain why the plaintiff would only obtain a diploma but not a degree. What is more, I do not accept the central thesis of her conclusion, which is that, because of her disadvantaged socio-economic background, the plaintiff would have been confined only to a diploma. That appears very arbitrary. She was pressed to concede during cross-examination that many successful people share the plaintiff's socio-economic background. On the other hand, I find Dr Matlala's reasoning more cogent in concluding that the plaintiff's self-motivation and drive, would have carried her through. The fact that the plaintiff did not allow pregnancy and the accident to deter her from pursuing her studies, is demonstrative of that self­ motivation. I therefore conclude that the plaintiff would, in all probability, have progressed to obtain a degree.

[19) The parties have agreed on certain actuarial calculations for different scenarios. Using the opinions expressed by the industrial psychologists in respect of the plaintiff's probable qualifications and career path based on her attaining a degree, GRS Actuarial Consulting, actuaries, have made a calculation of what the plaintiff would have earned in the remainder of her working life had she not been injured. The retirement age is assumed at age 62Y:z. The actuaries have calculated (on the basis of various assumptions) that but for the accident, the plaintiff would, in the scenario where she enters the open labour market with a degree, she would have earned R7 566 314. Her income, given that the accident occurred, is calculated at R2 325 137, resulting in the loss of RS 241 177. To these amounts, provision should be made for contingencies of life, and adjust the amounts accordingly. One should do so having regard to the two scenarios: the 'but for' and 'having regard to' scenarios. The actuaries have incorporated the general contingency deductions into the net limited loss of 10% for past income and 25% for future income in the 'but for scenario' and 5% and 30% in the 'having regard to scenario.

[20) I am of the view that in the light of the evidence which surfaced during the trial, further contingency deductions should be applied. This is so since where actuarial calculations are relied upon, the Court still retains a discretion in the

8

quantification of damages. It is 'not tied down by inexorable actuarial calculations'. (Legal Insurance Company Ltd v Bates 1963 (1) SA 608 (A), at 614F-G). See also Anthony and Another v Cape Town Municipality 1967 (4) SA 445 (A) at 4518-C.

[21] In the 'but for scenario', I must consider a number of factors such as the plaintiff's skills, age and prospects of progression in the labour market. The plaintiff is 32 years old. Her highest academic achievement is matric, completed in 2007. She demonstrated keen interest in studying and bettering her position through education. The negative contingencies include the possibility that the plaintiff might not have obtained the degree, after all; the possibility of errors in the estimation of the plaintiff's retirement age and in calculation of future pay progression; her taking early retirement; the likelihood of illness or unemployment which would have occurred in any event, and similar considerations.

[22] Given that the accident happened before the plaintiff could realise her full potential, resulting in .a lot of uncertainty as to her career path, I am of the view that a 20% contingency deduction should be applied to the uninjured scenario, that is R7 566 314 - 20% = R6 053 051.20.

[23] Turning now to the 'having regard to' scenario. In this scenario, I have to consider a number of variables consisting, among others, of the probability of the plaintiff retaining his present employment; and the possibility of career change, due to continued therapy for the sequelae of the injuries sustained in the accident. There are both negative and positive contingencies.

[24] Having regard to all the relevant factors, a contingency deduction of 30% in the 'having regard' to scenario is in my view, fair and adequate compensation for the plaintiff. Thus R2 325 137- 30% = R 1 627 595.90. The difference between the 'but
for' and 'having regard to' scenarios is therefore: R6 053 051.20 - R 1 627 595.90, resulting in the net future loss of earnings at R4 425 451.30. From this amount, a further deduction in the amount of R300 000 should be made, which is the amount of general damages already advanced by the defendant to the plaintiff as an interim payment. This leaves the plaintiff's damages in the amount of R4 125 451.30.

9

[25) There remains the issue of costs. The plaintiff employed the services of senior counsel. Ms Maite, counsel for the defendant submitted that the matter is not so complicated as to warrant the employment of senior counsel. I agree. I would therefore allow costs of one counsel. It is up to the taxing master to decide whether to allow costs of senior counsel or only of the junior.

[26) The plaintiff's counsel handed up a comprehensive draft order, which incorporates most of the various aspects of the order I intend to make. The draft also attaches a trust deed for the creation of a trust to manage the capital on behalf of the plaintiff, given the nature of her injuries and vulnerability. There are however, a few aspects that were not addressed to me but appear in the draft order. Firstly, in paragraphs 3 and 4 of the draft, provision is made for the furnishing of an undertaking in terms of s 17(4)(a) of the Act 56 by the defendant to the plaintiff, as per an order of this court made on 15 May 2015. I simply do not think it is technically correct to include that paragraph into the present order. An order has already been made in that regard. If there is no compliance with that order, the plaintiff has the necessary remedies in terms of which she may approach this court on application for the necessary relief.

[27) Secondly, there are also the costs incurred on 15 May 2015. In paragraph 5.5 of the draft, provision is also made for payment of those costs. The court on that occasion made a costs order in respect of the qualifying fees of six experts (in paragraph 4 of the order) and in the duplicated paragraph 4 it made provision for costs of counsel, travelling and preparation. Similarly, I do not see any reason why that court order should be duplicated here. I was not addressed on this aspect, and maybe there are cogent reasons why those costs should be included here. For this reason my view would be provisional until either party does, within five days hereof, give notice of intention to make submissions why those costs should be duplicated here. On the lapsing of that period, the order shall become final.

[28) Thirdly, in paragraph 7 of the draft, it is stated that the plaintiff was advanced an amount of R500 000 by her attorneys. I do not have any information about this, except what is stated in the draft. Similarly, the issue was not addressed to me

10

during the trial. If I were to make that provision part cf the court order, I would be doing so in the dark. If there is an agreement between the plaintiff and her attorneys in that regard, it is enforceable as between them, and it does not need the imprimatur of this court.

(29] The upshot of all the above, is that paragraphs 3, 4, 5,5, and part of paragraph 7, do not find their way into the order I am about to make.

(30]   In the result I make the following order:

1.	The defendant is ordered to pay the plaintiff R4 125 451.30;

2.	The defendant is ordered to pay the plaintiffs costs of the action, such costs to include:
2.1	the costs of one counsel;

2.2	the reasonable taxable fees for consultation and preparation for trial, qualifying and reservation fees (if any) and on proof thereof as well as the costs of the reports of:
2.2.1	Dr L Kgalema;

2.2.4	Dr M Malaka;

2.2.5	Dr Lazarus K Nkuna;

2.2.6	Dr K Mafeekane;

2.2.7	Dr M Mohapi;

2.2.8	George Schwalb;

2.3	The costs of all other reports served on defendant's attorneys not mentioned above;
1.1	

11

2.4	The costs of obtaining all actuarial reports from the actuaries GRS Actuarial Consulting;
2.5	The  costs  of establishing the  Eunice Chabangu Trust  referred to

hereunder;

2.6	The costs of the trial enrolled for 3 March 2016;

2.7	The plaintiff's reasonable hotel accommodation, transportation costs for attending consultation with the medico-legal experts as well as reasonable transportation for attending to court.
3.	It is noted that the amount in paragraph 1 and the costs are to be paid into the trust account of Dolamo Attorneys.
4.	It is noted that after deduction of agreed/attorney fee due to the plaintiff's

attorney and their correspondent, and after deduction of disbursements (including counsel's fees) the net amount of the award is to be paid to the EUNICE CHABANGU TRUST. A copy of the draft trust deed of the EUNICE CHABANGU is attached hereto marked "A".
5.	It is noted that the plaintiff has agreed to furnish the defendant with at least 14

(fourteen) days written notice of taxation.

6.	The plaintiff's attorney is entitled to charge contingency fees in terms of the Contingency Fees Act on the basis of the contingency fee agreement dated 15 February 2010.
