A case of insurance fraud has reached its final decision in the High Court, where a father has received the system's word that he and his daughter cheated with a car.
A father must now find almost DKK 100,000 after the High Court has decided that he defrauded his insurance company.
The man's daughter drove around in a car in the father's name. And since she was the primary user of the car, the insurance on the car should also have been taken out in her name.

It is not unknown for children to drive around in their parents' cars. But the way in which the man's daughter did it can, according to the Hojesteret's decision, be equated with insurance fraud.
The fact that the case turned out the way it did is because the Supreme Court emphasized a number of circumstances. Among other things, the car was bought when the man's daughter got a choir card, the daughter referred to the car as her own, and after the last accident, where the car was totally damaged, she bought a new car.
Also then in the name of the father. Even though she was also a regular user of the car on the new car. A situation that was not mentioned at all in the insurance papers.
The case means that the father must pay DKK 41,000 to the insurance company, DKK 51,000 in court costs plus the costs of his own lawyer.
So the bill easily ends up on the scary side of DKK 100,000. A 17-year-old moped choir does not have to get rid of that amount. Still, he can wave goodbye to the appetizer. Read more about it here .
