The Bombay High Court in an observation recently said that the bursting of tyre cannot be termed as an “act of God” and that it is an act of human negligence. The Court made this observation while dealing with a motor accident claims case wherein the insurance company had contended that the tyre burst of the offending vehicle leading to the accident was an act of God hence it wasn’t liable to pay compensation.
