I Would Love to Know the Theory of This

6/9/22 New York Post:
"A Missouri woman who claimed she caught a sexually transmitted disease when she had sex with her boyfriend in his vehicle has been awarded a $5.2 million settlement from her now-ex-partner’s car insurance company."

Now, I could see how his renters or homeowners insurance might cover this as part of his personal liability -- which includes on many policies libel and slander but not copyright infringement (as I discovered when Righthaven shook me down with the scheme that eventually bankrupted them).  But car insurance?  Was this collision?  (In a slow and controlled way, I suppose).  At least they did not the car maker for failing to make a car where sex was impossible.
