Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Under a contract of adhesion, one party writes the contract and the other party is forced to accept it without negotiation. Ambiguous or unclear terms in the contract are interpreted against the writer of the contract, which is typically the insurer in the case of insurance policies. This is to protect the party who did not have a chance to negotiate or clarify ambiguous terms. Therefore, choice B is the best answer.
