Legal Question in Insurance Law in Virginia
Car stolen while keys were accidently locked in car
I accidently locked my keys in my car and while I went to retreive the spare set, the car was stolen. I had no theft insurance but I did have liability. If the person that stole the car hurt someone while driving my car, am I liable, and if so will my insurance cover me?

No, you would not be liable for any damages caused by the person who allegedly stole your vehicle since you, obviously, in this particular circumstance, did not give permission for this unauthorized driver to take control of and drive your vehicle.
