    C) the principle of subrogation

    Explanation:

    Principle of subrogation says that when the insured makes a claim on damage by a third party, the insurance company pays the insured and then recoup from the third party.

    Basically the insurance company is taking over the legal right from Melody to get settlement from the negligent driver.

    The insurance company will get the loss payment now directly from the negligent driver.
