Comprehensive and Detailed Step by Step Explanation:An accidental death rider pays an additional benefit if death results solely from an accident.
* Automobile accidents resulting from the insured's negligence (D):Covered, as negligence does not negate the accidental nature of the event. The death must result directly from the accident without other contributing factors like illness.
* Intentionally self-inflicted injuries (A):Excluded, as they are not accidental.
* Illness or disease (B):Excluded, as accidental death benefits only apply to unforeseen events, not natural causes.
* War or acts of war (C):Excluded in most policies due to specific exclusions for wartime risks.
