[the alarming man]

yes that is true it might well be the victims car...BUT he was not driving so i fail to see how the victims insurance company would even entertain it..

Because it is a consequence of the theft That's like saying that if it is stolen and driven through someone's house the insurance company can wipe their hands of it

I know that it was common practice to charge any damage caused by a stolen car to the keeper/his insurance Both from a professional point of view (it's amazing what people tell recovery drivers ) and a personal point of view having dealt with 2 stolen vehicles in the past (both the previous Mrs LD's I might add )

By the way... I'm not saying I agree with the PC's actions, just showing the other side of the argument As I said before, he should be dealing with his employer's insurer who will, in turn, deal with the car owner's insurers Unless, of course, the car was uninsured (possibly completely legally, i.e. SORNed) in which case it would go back to the owner He could, of course, pass it on to his contents insurance provider if the keys were stolen from the house, but I highly doubt there is enough cover there for the car, let alone a compensation claim

i am guessing then legal protection (that is sold along side insurance) is a very good idea

I bet you'd find a clause... There are plenty there for amity paperwork!
