Commercial Auto Insurance helps your business cover the financial costs resulting from an auto accident if you or an employee is found at fault. Commercial auto insurance helps pay for damaged property and medical expenses - even in the event of a fatal accident.

Most businesses have at least one truck, car, or other vehicle. And many use a fleet of commercial vehicles such as busses, limos, delivery vans, or very large trucks such as dump trucks or tractor trailers. A personal auto policy will not protect your business vehicle use, so it is critical to get commercial vehicle insurance quotes and make sure you have the right coverage to protect your business investments.

Commercial auto insurance will help protect you for example, if:
  • An employee hits a pedestrian while driving a company truck and the pedestrian requires medical treatment that results in substantial bills.
  • You accidentally swerve off the road while driving to work and take out a residential mailbox and have to pay for the damage.
  • An employee driving to work accidentally hits another car and totals it.

    Commercial Auto Insurance vs. Personal Car Insurance

    When it comes to drivers, vehicles, and purposes, personal drivers don't have the same kinds of car insurance concerns as do businesses.

    Businesses have much higher liability issues; as such, usually they have higher liability insurance requirements or recommendations. Generally, businesses deal with:
  • Employees.
  • Passengers.
  • Work gear.
  • Other people and/or equipment.


  • What Does Commercial Auto Insurance Cover?

    Basically, commercial car insurance covers the same major coverages private individuals purchase (usually at higher limits); however, there are many add-ons more suited for commercial driving, such as coverage for your:
  • Employees, including fellow employee coverage and broadened and blanket policies that protect additional employees or people for whom your business is doing work.
  • Equipment, including loading and unloading goods.
  • Business, which protects your assets in the event of a lawsuit.
