My neighbour has a tree in his front yard, most of which hangs over my drive way. He has said numerous times last year and this year that he wants to take it down. This year the tree pretty well died...no vegetation on it at all and it looks really dried out.
Last night we had a rain storm with high winds and lots of thunder and lightning. This morning I got up to drive my wife to work and my windsheild was shattered. There are pieces of wood stuck in the glass and at least a dozen chunks of limbs from the tree all over my driveway.
I haven't spoken to my neighbour yet as he's at work I believe. So here's the question...do I wait and speak to him or call my insurance company first. I don't want to have to pay a cent, be it up front or due to increased rates, but we'll have to see what happens. Would I have to pay for this because it's an "act of god"?
I've snapped a few pics of the windsheild and the limbs on my drive way just in case. I really hope this encourages him to finally take the tree down before it falls on my house...
