EXAMFX - Exam FX Insurance Personal Auto Policy Details Questions and Answers

Question 1

An insured has a Personal Auto Policy with liability limits of 25/50/20. They cause an accident resulting in bodily injuries to three people in another car. Person A's injuries total $30,000, Person B's are $15,000, and Person C's are $10,000. The damage to the other car is $18,000. What is the maximum amount the insured's policy will pay for the bodily injury claims?

Accepted Answer

$50,000

Answer

The split liability limits of 25/50/20 stand for $25,000 per person for Bodily Injury, $50,000 total per accident for Bodily Injury, and $20,000 per accident for Property Damage. For Person A, the policy pays the per-person limit of $25,000, not the full $30,000. For Person B ($15,000) and Person C ($10,000), the full amounts are paid as they are below the per-person limit. The total paid for bodily injury is $25,000 + $15,000 + $10,000 = $50,000, which equals the per-accident limit.

Question 2

Under Part D (Coverage for Damage to Your Auto) of a standard Personal Auto Policy, which of the following losses would be covered under Other Than Collision (Comprehensive) coverage?

Accepted Answer

The insured vehicle strikes a deer that runs across the road.

Answer

Other Than Collision, also known as Comprehensive coverage, pays for direct and accidental loss to the covered auto from perils such as fire, theft, vandalism, hail, and contact with a bird or animal. Striking a deer falls under contact with an animal. The other options are all considered Collision losses.

Question 3

Which of the following is a primary characteristic of Medical Payments coverage (Part B) in a Personal Auto Policy?

Accepted Answer

It covers reasonable medical expenses for the insured and their passengers, regardless of fault.

Answer

Medical Payments coverage (Part B) pays for reasonable and necessary medical and funeral expenses incurred by an insured because of bodily injury caused by an auto accident. A key feature is that it pays without regard to fault. It covers the named insured, family members, and any passengers in the insured's vehicle.

Question 4

An insured with Uninsured Motorists (UM) coverage is seriously injured by a hit-and-run driver while jogging. How will the insured's Personal Auto Policy likely respond to the bodily injury claim?

Accepted Answer

The UM coverage will respond because a hit-and-run driver qualifies as uninsured, and the policy covers the insured as a pedestrian.

Answer

Uninsured Motorists (UM) coverage protects the insured for bodily injury caused by a driver with no insurance or by a hit-and-run driver. This coverage applies not only when the insured is in a vehicle but also when they are a pedestrian.

Question 5

The standard territorial limits of a Personal Auto Policy include coverage for accidents that occur in which of the following locations?

Accepted Answer

The United States, its territories and possessions, Puerto Rico, and Canada.

Answer

The policy territory for a standard Personal Auto Policy is defined as the United States of America, its territories or possessions, Puerto Rico, and Canada. Coverage in Mexico is typically excluded and requires a separate endorsement or policy.
