Question

1. Scenario: Stephanie has been driving for four years without any major auto accidents-until today. It was pouring rain when she left class, and within minutes of leaving, she was forced to make an evasive maneuver that caused her to go into a spin on the wet road. After knocking an expensive, high-end luxury car down an embankment, Stephanie came to a stop by smashing into the side of a mid-range sedan. She was found to be at fault in the accident, so let's look at the extent of the damage she caused: Luxury car: This car was totaled at a value of $95,000. Sedan: This car will need $4,000 in repairs. Hospital bills: The driver of the luxury car had $15,000 in medical bills for a broken arm, while his passenger had $185,000 in medical bills for emergency surgery and recovery. Like many Americans, Stephanie carries a 100/300/100 liability policy. Given the fact that Stephanie does not have an umbrella policy in place, how much of the remaining hospital bills for the passenger in the luxury car will she be held personally responsible for?
A. $4,000
B. $15,000
C. 85,000
D. 100,000

Answer 1

C. 85,000 of the insurance is 100,000 for a bodily injury
