Avtor v prispevku predstavi problematiko priznanja izpada uporabe motornega vozila kot pravno priznane škode. Ukvarja se predvsem z vozili za zasebno uporabo, kajti pri vozilih, ki se uporabljajo v gospodarske namene, se izpad rabe pokaže z izgubo dobička, katere povrnitev ni problematična. Kadar oškodovanec izpad uporabe pokrije z najemom nadomestnega vozila, se nastali stroški priznajo kot (konkretna) premoženjska škoda, veljajo pa tudi določene omejitve. Če pa oškodovanec ne najame nadomestnega vozila in izpad uporabe pokriva drugače (hodi peš, se vozi s sosedi ipd.), se po stališču sodne prakse ta škoda ne prizna, saj se ne pokaže neposredno na njegovem premoženju, prav tako pa se v takem primeru ne prizna nepremoženjska škoda. Avtor zagovarja stališče, da je izguba rabe sama po sebi premoženjska škoda, ki jo je treba (abstraktno) povrniti tudi, če oškodovanec ne najame nadomestnega vozila, za kar navaja vrsto argumentov.

In the article, the author tries to introduce the reader to the problem of damages for the loss of use of things, above all of motor vehicles. The situation is problematic only with regard to vehicles for personal use, since the loss of use of vehicles for commercial use is reflected in a loss of profit, for which damages are awarded. If the wronged party covers the loss of use by renting a substitute vehicle, the costs for the rent (albeit with certain limitations) are acknowledged as (concrete) damages. If, however, the wronged party does not rent a substitute vehicle and covers the loss of use in another way (walks or rides with the neighbour etc.) then according to the case law the damage does not manifest itself directly in the property of the wronged party; thus it is not material loss and immaterial loss is not awarded in such a case. The author advocates the view that the loss of use itself, regardless of the way the wronged party covers it, represents material loss and entitles to damages. (Abstract) damages should be awarded even if the wronged party does not incur costs for a substitute vehicle.
