Kelly took her eyes off the road and ended up smashing into the back of a passenger van. How much will she have to pay out of pocket if all five passengers were injured with each one incurring $25,000 in medical costs, assuming Kelly has liability coverage with limits of 50/100/50?

  1. $10,000

  2. $50,000

  3. $25,000

  4. $15,000

The correct answer is: $25,000

Kelly will have to pay $25,000 out of pocket. This is because the 50/100/50 liability coverage refers to the maximum amount that the insurance company will pay for each person (up to $50,000) and the maximum amount they will pay for all individuals involved (up to $100,000). Since each passenger incurs $25,000 in medical costs, the insurance company will cover $50,000 for the two most severely injured passengers and $25,000 each for the remaining three, leaving Kelly responsible for the remaining $25,000 out of pocket. Option A is incorrect because it only covers a portion of the total cost. Option B and D are incorrect because they exceed the coverage limits.
