I don’t know law but the issue seemed to begin with Geico agreeing to arbitration, no doubt assuming the claim would be laughed away. So...were there simply mischief makers on the arbitration panel thinking ‘We’ll approve the claim and see where this goes’ or were they SJWs or what?
The referenced error that Geico made was probably agreeing to arbitration instead of taking the case to court. Now a liberal appeals court (perhaps SJWs, too) has them in a bind.
What’s right is wrong, what’s wrong is right.
Depraved minds.
Dem were the days.......
Dark of night, a few drinks and sex in the car.......
Yep, life goes on and incidents will be repeated...
Are you all sure this isn’t the Babylon Bee? This is one of the most ridiculous things I have ever read.
They guy needs to sue this woman for getting in his car and having unprotected sex with him. Or this needs to go to the Supreme Court.
Car insurance heading to $10,000 a year.
That is the result of craziness like this.
Does that mean Homeowners and Renters insurance carriers could also be sued? Super! Watch this wave catch on!
Yes a stretch since “She contended the man caused her to be infected with the STD despite being aware of his condition and the risks of unprotected sex.”
So she had unprotected sex even knowing his condition and risks of unprotected sex”.
How is it possible with that statement she won?
It must be covered by a comprehensive clause in the policy.
How did she prove the act actually occurred in a car? There will be a flood of claims filed after this ruling.
This absolutely needs to be appealed!
In May 2021, the arbitrator found that the man and woman had sex inside his vehicle that “directly caused, or directly contributed to cause” the HPV infection. The man was found liable for not disclosing his infection status and the woman was awarded $5.2 million for damages and injuries to be paid by GEICO.
The insurance company filed motions seeking a new hearing of the evidence and for the award to be tossed out, saying the judgment violated the company’s rights to due process and the arbitration agreement was unenforceable. The company appealed after those requests were denied.

Dem back seats will gets’u every time. Be careful.
This absolutely needs to be appealed!
I meant to the USSC.
This just is not right.
if the keys are in the ignition, running or not, and you are in the vehicle, you are considered operating the vehicle.
Here’s trick to get out of a DUI, place the keys inside the front wheel or in the gas cap area, crawl back in and sleep it off. The cops can’t arrest you.
How is this different from saying the car insurance has to pay if a passenger in a car shoots another passenger in the car?
[[How did she prove the act actually occurred in a car?]]
5hat is my question. Whe could have contracted it days, weeks, months before. I doubt there is a test to determine the day and hour she got it.
Flee youthful lusts which war against the soul.
Geico should stop insuring anything in that state.
He obviously had broad coverage.
Sound as true as the CAR giving her the STD.. 🤓
