Among these advantages are:Superior coverage for all company vehicles\u00a0Coverage for multiple driversCoverage for several types of cars, trucks, vans &amp; other vehicles (e.g. dump trucks)Inclusive coverage, even for employees with poor driving recordsCoverage of vehicles used to transport goods or equipment.Business Auto Insurance covers both liability and physical damage for all company vehicles. The reason commercial vehicles require a separate policy is that they are typically exposed to more risks than personal vehicles.\u00a0For example, commercial vehicles often cover more miles, travel longer distances, spend large amounts of time in heavy stop-and-go traffic or double-parked, and may be driven on more difficult terrain than personal vehicles. Business vehicles are also most often used by various drivers, some of whom may be inexperienced or unfamiliar with the type of vehicle they are asked to drive.Don\u2019t make the mistake of thinking that because you don\u2019t own a fleet, or use a tractor or food or utility truck, you don\u2019t require Commercial Auto Insurance. Even if you use a single business car to run errands, transport clients, or carry merchandise or tools, your company needs the protection of Commercial Auto Insurance.\u00a0What Commercial Auto Insurance CoversAs long as a vehicle is owned, leased, or rented by your company, your business will be held liable for any property damage or personal injury it causes in accidents and for any legal expenses it incurs.
