What does the home insurance company do if someone falls on the ice and makes a claim which the insurance has to pay, and they decide it was the homeowner's fault?
Do they pay the claim and cancel the insurance? Pay and raise the the rates? Some 3rd choice?
--Looked at the neigbor's sidewalk today and the icy patch is the width of the sidewalk (about 3') by 18 feet long. Plus the sidewalk going up to their front door is covered with ice more than half of the way. (the entire width for half of that half, and half width for the quarter closest to the house-to-house sidewalk. Because the 4"sump pump hose extends about 10 feet from the front wall of the house. )
