Having company vehicles on the road means you are working and growing your business. Commercial auto insurance is just as important as insuring your business itself. There are many different types and uses of commercial auto. It’s important you are partnered with an insurance professional who understands your commercial auto risk and can provide the products suited for your business.
The following is some basic coverages you must have:
This section of your automobile insurance policy protects you if someone else is killed or injured or their property is damaged. It will pay for claims resulting from lawsuits against you up to the coverage limit and pay the costs of settling the claims.
This section of your automobile insurance policy provides you with benefits if you are injured in an automobile accident, regardless of who caused the accident. This includes supplementary medical, rehabilitation and attendant care, caregiver, non-earner and income replacement benefits. Options exist to increase most of these coverages.
This section of your automobile insurance policy covers damage to your vehicle or its contents. It also covers the loss of use of your vehicle or its contents if another person was at fault for the accident. It is called direct compensation because even though someone else causes the damage, you collect directly from your own insurer. Most policies don’t have a direct compensation property damage deductible, but you can add one to lower your premium.
