Stolen Vehicle that caused damage | Who pays?
Person is camping in the woods when a stolen vehicle out for a joy ride runs them over and destroys their camp.
The person goes to the hospital with injuries and files a police report. Later the car is recovered.
Is the car owners insurance responsible for any of the damage and medical bills?
Answer:
Probably not. Most insurance policies (auto policies) exclude coverage for damages caused by non-permissive drivers. Joy rides include non permissive drives and thus, coverage would probably not be granted.
