No doubt he did the right thing - but I wonder if the insurance companies are getting ready to tell him to bend over...
Exactly.
I think they'd take the "for profit" stance.
That said, I don't know that they could deny the claim, but they could probably either just pay and treat it like an at-fault "accident", or drop him, after paying the claim.
It won't hurt that he has a police department, a bunch of parents, and the internet, to vouch for him to the insurance company....
Not a bit.
But I don't know that it will be any more help.
I hope there's no subsequent litigation from the driver's family.
The guy did good. I hope all goes well. He deserves all the slack he can get.
If he gets sued, I hope the families that he protected sue the kid that stole the car. Which if I understand correctly would put his parents on the hook. They might not get anything, but if each filed a separate lawsuit, the cost of defending their kid could cost them an awful lot.
Agree!
