RECKLESS AUTOISTS
and INSURANCE
Wild Speeding May VitiatG
Their Policies

Americas autolsts who are in the
habit of speeding while On the pub
lie roads, taking the chances of sud
dan injury if not death, will be in
terested in knowing that when they
are violating the state law by excess
,sive speed they are taking the chance
of Vtiating their accident insurance
policies because of such violation of
the law. In other words, if an autoist
running at breakneck speed actually
does break his neck, or an arm, or a
leg, an insurance company can contest
the payment of the policy on the
ground that he injured himself while
deliberately violating the law and as
a result has Initiated the policy.
Some time ago MIR. Jones, a wealthy
furniture dealer of Savannah, was
killed while automobiling. He held an
accident policy for $4,000, which con-
tanned the provision that if killed in
an duIO dCCIueHI P1V,OVV SAOulu oe
paid.
Proof of death and CLAIM for the
$4,000 was filed promptly by the ad-
ministrators of the estate. But, ac>
cording to the representations made
in the petition the casualty company
denied liability on several grounds.
One of the grounds assigned was the
fact that the automobile was being
operated in a manner that was a VIC
lation of the state auto law.
The petitioners examined into the
and came to the con-
clusion that there were grave doubts
whether the terms of the policy had
been violated, doubt whether the dou-
BILE liability could be established, and
recommended that the claim be SET
tied for $500. The company was will
ing to settle for this amount and the
court approved the action.
