You swerve to avoid a badger and crash in to an oncoming car. Who do the insurance company determine is at fault?

Not the fuckin Badger that's for sure!
A human i'd wager would be different though!

Whoever swerved, if they were out of lane when the crash happened. Which is why you shouldn't.

A cat politely sat on the flaming gardener.
To be fair to the police surely this is down to stupid members of the public reporting it?
Actually no, I won't be fair to them the thick cunts.

Insurance settlements aren't based on cause. They're not even based on fault and blame per se. It's a crude apportioning of relative negligence between two or more parties.

The person not swerving, their insurance would paying out you reckon?

The driver who swerved. But only because the dog is uninsured. Your clutching at straws here.
The dog would have been the cause of any accident that occurred.
Very obviously and indisputably, to anyone who doesn't wear sex-offender coats.

The driver who didn't deviate from their course claims from the driver who did. That person (or their insurer) may then sue the dog owner, if there is one. So at least two possibilities.
If a perfectly good tree that you're parked underneath is hit by lightning, catches on fire and then falls on your car, who's at fault? Who pays? What was the cause? Three different things

Happened to me once, was waltzing across road amidst very slow moving traffic outside the Kentish Town and Country Club, motorbike coming up between the lines of cars had to fall off to avoid hitting us, his bike kept going and damaged 3 cars. The accident was entirely our fault and nobody even said a word to us , heated argument between car owners and the biker
I can't be doing with dairy farmers anyway. bastards

You quoted badger, so no one to sue.
Insurers cite act of God for the lightening tree and they pay.

The Etonian pig-Fucker did this today, went down well with a bunch of braying tories, so it did.

Yeah. But noone is at fault and the cause was lightning.
If this badger of yours runs out in front of you, you hit it in your lane this time, but it breaks your brand new suspension, you veer across the road and crash into the other car anyway, who's at fault? Insurance settlement is the same.

You are at fault for driving too fast for the conditions.

heckling from the back!
What's that bit in the highway code about driving at a safe speed ?
ie drive at such a speed that you can stop within the distance you can see to be clear.
I live in a rural area, and drive in the dark a lot - but in almost 30 years I've yet to hit a fox / badger / dog / cat / cow / horse / deer - despite seeing them in front of me many times ... I'll admit to one pheasant three years ago that flew across and hit the side (not the front) of the car. And I don't hang about.

The distance you can see to be clear isn't good enough any more if an animal emerges into it from a hedge or whatever, but noone's really suggesting you drive at near zero speed.
The rule's about making sure you don't blindly plough into something round an unsighted bend or into an emerging car at a junction that you could have reasonably expected to move.
Personally I think you should be held to that rule (or a slightly more carefully phrased version of it) but case law shows that 'reasonable' driving standards are actually much lower, i.e. you'd never be convicted of anything for breaking it alone.

"The conditions" being a dog darting in and out of traffic on a fast unlit road.

So many particulars. So many questions.
couldn't be arsed to get out of the motor. nearly end of shift. That peculiar nihilism you get in some coppers akin to people who never grew out of torturing insects and never graduated to mammals because their dad brayed them regular. A heady mix that results in the death of someones mr. tibbles. Makes you glad Poison got its bites in in that hilarious video. Before they shot it to death.
Still you can't get em convicted for murder of a human so the life of a dog is less than peanuts by their logic

It probably took their car out of service, so not ideal for sitting on one's fat arse in the warm.
It was a few years ago now but I was with a friend in the car when he hit a fawn and it was still alive. Had to finish it off with a car jack. It was like something out of a film as the red rear lights illuminated the night and our faces as we finished off bambi with a thud and a wet crunch.

Oh no, now they will not have a car. If only there was a fleet of tuned up badboy motors in police livery that they could avail themselves of in the meantime.
I hope hero dog did put the car out of commision for a bit as well. A place in the heros hall for this dog, alongside cmrds Laika and Poison
Motorway bridges they're not. Happened to a good friend of mine last year. Woman committed suicide. He's in bits as he hit her

Cold comfort for the parents whose kid has been killed by the driver at fault. Especially if it could've been avoided by decisive action on the part of the OB.

Be a Pisces. Jam.
Close the road for 5 minutes and let the dog live? Not exactly rush hour was it. Oh they were dog owners, I bet some of their best friends are black too!
Not fucking rocket science, and I believe they have lights and equipment to allow them to do this.

Yes, filth should have shut the road, like what they normally do. Lazy cunts.
