Question

Fred took his friend, Mary, out to dinner on her birthday. While driving Mary home, Fred became ill and asked Mary to drive. While driving Fred's car, Mary negligently injured another motorist when she failed to top at a red light.

Fred has an auto insurance policy with a liability insurance limit of $250,000 per person for bodily injury liability. Mary has a similar auto insurance policy with a liability limit of $100,000 per person.

3) Assume that Fred cannot afford to pay the premium and lets his auto insurance policy lapse. At the time of the accident, he is uninsured. If the liability judgment against Mary is $100,000, how much, if any, will Mary's insurer pay? Explain your answer.

Explanation / Answer

As Fred is uninsured, insurer pay is nil. Here clearly specified that Mary's liability is $100,000 and also she has liability limit of $100,000. Hence, Mary's insurer will pay $100,000
