Crazy Motor Insurance Claims

Okay, so there is this guy driving down the road and all of the sudden a tree appears from nowhere and jumps into his path. Who is at fault?

Believe it or not, claims processors for auto insurance companies often run into explanations for accidents that defy logic and, at times, are downright comical.

The processor possibly thought about submitting the information to The American Journal of Medicine.
