Spouse Liability After Fatal Accident
What is the name of your state? TX
My husband was an excluded driver on my insurance policy due to his bad driving record. While my children and I were out of state my husband took my car without my authority. He was involved in a headon collision and was killed instantly. The truck driver was hurt but was treated and released from the hospital the next morning.
Although I had insurance, my insuance company would not pay any claims due to the exclusion clause. Now the insurance company is coming after me personally to pay the truck drivers workmens' comp and for damage to the truck.
My husband has no estate.
Is the insurance company legal in coming after me? Can they sue me personally for my husbands negligence?
