1)
Auto liability insurance : If you cause a car accident, in other words, if you are liable for the accident, liability coverage helps pay for the other person's expenses.
Auto liability coverage comes in two forms: bodily injury liability coverage and property damage liability coverage.
Liability coverage typically doesn't pay to repair damage to your own car after an accident and also the accident should be caused by our own fault.Liability coverage also does not extend to costs associated with your own injuries after an accident you cause
So the correct option is :
b. |
a legal bill incurred by your insurance company who is defending you from a claim related to an accident caused by your negligence. |
2)
speculation risk is a type of risk that when undertaken it results in an uncertain degree of gain or loss.
Therefore, "Eliminating all risk" is the correct answer which does not mean speculation risk.
