Completing the Application, Underwriting, and Delivering the Policies
A policy term remains genuinely ambiguous after ordinary interpretation. What consequence follows from the contract being one of adhesion?
Answer and explanation
Answer: B. Because the insurer drafts the contract and offers it on its own terms, a genuine ambiguity surviving ordinary interpretation is generally read against the drafter. The rule does not void the contract, does not let the drafter pick its reading, and does not operate by deleting the term.Source: Pearson VUE — Georgia Insurance Examination Content Outlines #121102 — Outline page S2, Consequence of adhesion
