N2  - Accidental death policies insure against what their name implies, but what is an accidental death? This is often not a question easily answered, and when alcohol and drugs (prescribed or illegal) are the causes of, or contributors to, the death, the issue becomes even thornier, and highly fact- and jurisdiction-specific. As this survey shows, the law in this area is inconsistent but nevertheless susceptible of coherent and organized analysis.Accidental death policies insure against what their name implies, but what is an accidental death?
