Updated ruling on Ali v HSF Logistics Polska SP. Z o.o
- FOIL
Defendant insurers often encounter credit hire claims where it later emerges the claimant's damaged vehicle lacked a valid MOT, insurance certificate, or road fund licence at the time in question. In the past, the principles established in Agheampong v Allied Manufacturing (London) Limited ([2008] 6 WLUK 740) had been relied upon by defendants, a lower court decision examining the ex turpi causa doctrine in a credit hire claim involving an uninsured claimant to drive his own vehicle at the time of the accident.
