_ § 88.1-21. Motor vehicle and aircraft insurance means and includes
insurance against: ‘
_ (1) Loss of or damage resulting from any cause to motor vehicles,
which shall include trailers, or semitrailers or other attachments designed
for use in connection therewith, or aircraft and their equipment, and
against legal liability of the insured for loss or damage to the property
of another resulting from the ownership, maintenance or use of motor
vehicles or aircraft and against loss, damage or expense incident to a claim
of such liability, and
(2) Legal liability of the insured, and against loss, damage, or ex-
nse incident to a claim of such liability, arising out of the ‘death or
injury of any person resulting from the ownership, maintenance or use
of motor vehicles or aircraft, but not including any kind of insurance
specified in § 38.1-17.
Any policy of motor vehicle and aircraft insurance covering legal
liability of the insured under paragraph (2) of this section may include
appropriate provisions whereby the insuring company assumes the obliga-
tion of payment of medical, hospital, surgical and funeral expenses arising
out of the death or injury of any person, and any such policy of motor
vehicle insurance may include appropriate provisions whereby the insuring
company assumes the obligation of payment of weekly indemnity or other
spectfic benefits to persons who are injured and specific death benefits to
dependents, beneficiaries or personal representatives of persons who are
killed, if such injury or death is caused by accident and sustained while
tn or upon, entering or alighting from, or through being struck by a motor
vehicle, provided that such obligations are irrespective of any legal liabil-
ity of the insured or any other person.
§ 38.1-360. Nothing in this article shall apply to or affect (1) any
policy of workmen’s compensation insurance or any policy of liability
insurance with or without supplementary expense coverage therein or
when issued with or supplemental to a policy of motor vehicle liability in-
surance, as provided for in § 88.1-21 (2) to a coverage providing weekly
indemnity or other specific benefits to persons who are injured and specific
death benefits to dependents, beneficiaries or personal representatives of
persons who are killed, provided such benefits are irrespective of legal
liability of the insured or any other person, if such injury or death is
caused by accident and sustained while in or upon, entering or alight-
ing from, or through being struck by a motor vehicle; or (2) any policy
or contract of reinsurance; or (3) any blanket or group policy of insur-
ance; or (4) life insurance, endowment or annuity contracts, or con-
tracts supplemental thereto which contain only such provisions relating
to accident and sickness insurance as (a) provide additional benefits in
case of death or dismemberment or loss of sight by accident, or as (b)
operate to safeguard such contracts against lapse, or to give a special
surrender value or special benefit or an annuity in the event that the in-
sured or annuitant shall become totally and permanently disabled, as
defined by the contract or supplemental contract, or (5) any policy of
industrial sick benefit insurance.
