Public Liability Insurance

I read the awful news in The Star today where three people in a car on the way to town for supper were injured and killed as they stopped at the traffic lights as the dilapidated buildings that were being demolished that morning fell onto their car. Two of these people died and one was seriously injured. Luckily this happened just outside the general hospital.

This is where Public Liability Insurance comes in to save the contractor his skin. I am just assuming that he did get covered and he didn't think that it was a waste of money. Insurance is like that. We think of the worst and get ourselves covered but we hope that the bad stuff wouldn't happen and even if they do, we are covered.

Right now, we do not know if the family of these victims would be making claims against this contractor but I really think that they should be compensated. It's a pity they are victims of being at the wrong place at the wrong time.
