Answer 1

Answer:

A) The policy would provide a maximum of $100,000 for each person who was injured, and no more than $300,000 for total injuries of all parties in the accident.

Explanation:

The auto liability insurance policy held by the driver is an example of a split limit liability insurance. The split limit insurance of 100/300/50 is explained thus:

$100,000 - bodily injury liability insurance per person

$300,000 - Total bodily injury liability insurance per accident

$50,000 - Property damage liability per accident.
