What Is Commercial Auto Insurance?
Commercial auto insurance is a type of insurance policy designed specifically for vehicles used in the course of business. This insurance provides coverage for a wide range of vehicles, including cars, trucks, vans, and other commercial vehicles used for business purposes. The policy typically includes liability coverage, which pays for damages and injuries you may cause to others in an accident, as well as coverage for your own vehicle in the event of a collision, theft, or other types of damage.

Motor Carriers
Companies that own the trucks and hire drivers to operate them need insurance to cover their assets and liabilities, ensuring they are protected against accidents, damages, and lawsuits.
Trucking Companies
Businesses that operate a fleet of trucks for transporting goods must have commercial truck insurance to cover their vehicles, drivers, and cargo. This includes both large and small trucking companies.
Private Carriers
Businesses that use trucks to transport their own products, such as manufacturers or retailers, require commercial truck insurance to protect their vehicles and goods.
For-Hire Truckers
