Even if driver is drunk, insurer is liable: Tribunal
Mumbai: A Moter Accident Claims Tribunal has held that an insurance company cannot absolve its responsibility of paying insurance if the driver of the offending vehicle is drunk.
The tribunal made the observation while awarding a compensation of around Rs 55 lakh (Rs 15 lakh interest) to the family of 53-year-old police subinspector, Rajaram Desai, who died after a drunk car driver rammed into his bike at Vikhroli (East) in 2014.
