Maybe you\u2019re a fan of Marvel or DC movies \u2014 whichever side you take on that debate, you can\u2019t deny superheroes don\u2019t tend to spend much time thinking about the sheer amount of risk they expose themselves to on a daily basis. Enough, that is, to give any insurance<\/a> agent or underwriter an instant heart attack! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Batman\u2019s Batmobile: A High-Speed Liability<\/strong> <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

So, Batman? He\u2019s always zooming around Gotham in the Batmobile. Which is basically a tank. But have you seen how he drives? Come on \u2014 he\u2019s gotta be breaking every traffic law there is. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Imagine Batman speeding down the highway, chasing the Joker, and bam \u2014 he sideswipes a row of parked cars. Whoops. If Bruce Wayne had thought ahead, he might\u2019ve gotten some auto insurance<\/a> to cover those damages. Even billionaires need insurance, after all. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Flash\u2019s Speed Limit Complications<\/strong> <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The Flash is fast, super fast. But does he even care about speed limits? DOUBT IT. So, picture this: The Flash is running through Seattle at like, lightning speed, and suddenly, he\u2019s blown past a bunch of traffic cameras. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Speeding tickets, anyone? If Barry Allen had a good sense of safe speeds, he wouldn\u2019t need to worry about those fines. Because let\u2019s face it, even heroes have to obey traffic laws. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Wonder Woman\u2019s Lasso of Truth vs. Personal Injury Claims<\/strong> <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Wonder Woman\u2019s got that Lasso of Truth, which is pretty awesome. But what happens when she accidentally ropes in a bystander? Not so great. Just imagine if she\u2019s in the middle of a battle, throws her lasso, and whoops \u2014 catches some rando. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Now, she\u2019s facing a potential lawsuit. If Diana had some personal injury insurance, she could\u2019ve avoided the whole mess. She might need an umbrella policy,<\/a> for that matter! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Aquaman and the Great Flood Insurance Debacle<\/strong> <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Aquaman controls the ocean, which is cool until it\u2019s not. Like, when he accidentally causes a tsunami. Just think about Aquaman is battling some sea monster, and suddenly, a giant wave floods downtown Seattle. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

That\u2019s gonna leave a mark. And while Aquaman might not have an issue living in a flooded home, most people are gonna want a solid flood insurance add-on<\/a> to their primary homeowners policy. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Superman\u2019s Kryptonite: Accidental Demolition Charges<\/strong> <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Superman is all powerful, right? But that doesn\u2019t mean he doesn\u2019t cause a few accidents now and then. Like, remember the time he crash-landed in Tacoma and took out a whole building? <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Not his best moment. If Superman had known the poor building owner had a solid general liability<\/a> policy, he wouldn\u2019t have to worry about the guilt of covering those repair costs. Even heroes need a little help sometimes. And so do Tacoma building owners, apparently.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Superman<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Iron Man\u2019s Failed Drone Delivery and Liability Coverage<\/strong> <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Tony Stark is a genius \u2014 but even geniuses mess up. Take that time his drone delivery system went haywire and dropped a package into Lake Washington. Yeah. Not great. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

If Stark Industries had some business insurance<\/a>, they\u2019d be covered for the costs of replacing that lost package. Because even billionaires don\u2019t like losing money (in fact, they hate it!). <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Captain America\u2019s Shield: A Potential Property Damage Hazard<\/strong> <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Captain America\u2019s shield is practically indestructible. But that doesn\u2019t mean it can\u2019t cause some serious damage. Cap throws his shield pretty willy-nilly, and one day it might just accidentally crash through the window of a coffee shop. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Oops. If that shop has commercial property insurance, they won\u2019t have to worry about the cost of repairs. Cap might be a hero, but he\u2019s not covering that bill. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

When a City Is Accidentally Destroyed in the Quest For Justice<\/strong> <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Superhero battles are epic, but they can also leave cities in ruins. When half the city is leveled in a fight \u2014 who\u2019s paying for all that destruction? If the city had some mythical all-encompassing \u201ccity protection policy,\u201d then the rebuilding process wouldn\u2019t be such a nightmare. Because cleaning up after a superhero showdown isn\u2019t cheap. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In any event, those heroes are gonna be on the hook! And if they decide to wipe out Seattle during one of their battles, people aren\u2019t gonna be happy about it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Whether you\u2019re a superhero or not, you don\u2019t ever want to be caught off guard by the true supervillains of the world, including liability, auto accidents, and floods \u2014 especially up here in the scenic Pacific Northwest. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
