Funny Insurance Claims


man laughing funny insurance claimsFunny Insurance Claims can really make you laugh. Combine the natural instinct to pass the buck with the inability of some people to give a clear explanation and you have some really funny car accident reports.


I've sprinkled a few of my favorites throughout this page for your enjoyment. I hope they'll tickle your funny bone.


"I had been shopping for plants all day and was on my way home.
As I reached an intersection, a hedge sprung up, obscuring my vision."



I would imagine that working in an insurance office could be a bit boring and methodical at times. I can just picture the agents relieving some of that boredom by sharing some of the more hilarious explanations that people have written when trying to relate "what happened."


"No one was to blame for the accident,
but it never would have happened if the other driver had been alert."



There really isn't anything funny about a car accident. It can be painful, tragic, devastating, frustrating, annoying, inconvenient or any combination of the above. But, it usually isn't funny.


"I pulled away from the side of the road,
glanced at my mother-in-law, and headed over the embankment."



Strangely, though, as humans we can sometimes find humor in the harshness of our lives. I like to think it is a little relief valve that the Lord has implanted in us to enable us to cope.


"The telephone pole was approaching fast.
I was attempting to swerve out of its path when it struck my front end."


Please don't take offense at any of the humorous car insurance claim reports. They aren't meant to offend, but to act as a dose of laughter, well known as 'the best medicine.'


"As I approached the intersection,
a stop sign suddenly appeared in a place where no stop sign
had ever appeared before. I was unable to stop
in time to avoid the accident."



I live on the other side of the world from my mother. I love finding humorous things to read to her over the phone. We get to giggling and laughing so hard we can barely breathe. It's good for the both of us. I hope you'll enjoy these hilariously funny insurance claims as much as we did.


"I was unable to stop in time, and my car crashed
into the other vehicle. The driver and passengers then left immediately
for a vacation with injuries."
