"Almost any conventional insurance policy states in the “fine print” that there is no coverage if the vehicle is used during the commission of a crime."

While it's true most (virtually all) insurance policies - both standard liability and automobile insurance policies - contain what is known as a Crime Act Exclusion clause, most (but not necessarily all) will pay for a damages even when convicted of a DUI.

There are exceptions written in for DUIs in some policies to especially include high-risk policies.

Of course, you're very likely to get cancelled as a result of an at fault DUI accident.

“Of course, you’re very likely to get cancelled as a result of an at fault DUI accident.”

Well, I think he got canceled.

Sorry to be so crass, but the passenger was also killed. I don’t think that insurance will cover that person’s survivor claims against the estate.
