The Court of Appeals held that, under the Georgia Motor Vehicle Accident Reparations Act, the estate of the husband was not entitled to recover survivor's PIP benefits under the wife's automobile insurance policy. Nationwide Mut. Ins. Co. v. Gay, 165 Ga. App. 293 ( 299 S.E.2d 611) (1983). For the reasons given in the Court of Appeals' opinion, we agree.
