Any association that has been duly registered for at least five years on the date of the incident and whose articles of association aim to combat road traffic crime and to defend or assist the victims of such crime may exercise the rights granted to the civil party in respect of the offences of manslaughter or unintentional injury committed while driving a land motor vehicle when the public prosecution service or the injured party has initiated the public prosecution.
However, the association will only be admissible in its action if it can prove that it has received the agreement of the victim or, if the victim is a minor, that of the holder of parental authority or the legal representative.
Any foundation recognised as being in the public interest may exercise the rights recognised to a civil party under the same conditions and subject to the same reservations as the association mentioned in this article.
