What is Commercial Auto Insurance?

Commercial auto insurance is specifically designed to cover your autos used in connection with operation of your business. It covers autos owned by you or your business against damages like bodily injury or property damage in an accident caused by you or your employees. Commercial policy can cover your business auto with a higher liability limit, with common limit of 1 million.

Commercial insurance allows you to use your vehicle for business purposes which are not allowed under your personal auto insurance (i.e. deliveries, taxi or limo service, trucking, freight moving etc).

Your personal auto insurance will not typically provide coverage for vehicles used in operation of your business.

Is Commercial Vehicle Insurance Required?

Every Kansas City driver is required to carry auto insurance, and commercial vehicle operators are no exception. However, businesses that own or operate vehicles in any capacity must buy commercial insurance, specifically.

Business auto insurance can be instrumental in helping businesses minimize their liabilities in the face of challenges involving company vehicles. To ensure that you get the best coverage solutions for your operation, just contact Bargain Insurance Connection.

When Do I Need Business Auto Insurance?

Anyone who owns or uses a vehicle knows two things: driving is dangerous and vehicles are expensive.

Therefore, if problems arise, those involved could face significant financial strain as they try to recover. Auto insurance is designed to help lessen this burden, so that the policyholder doesn’t face significant monetary losses all on their own.

Commercial auto insurance is designed specifically for businesses that own or operate vehicles. Personal auto insurance does not cover commercial vehicles, whereas a commercial auto policy specifically addresses the business’s cost risks that they have invested in vehicle operations.

What Kind of Vehicles Can Be Covered by Business Auto Insurance?

Numerous vehicles might qualify for commercial auto insurance, including:

  • Vehicles owned by a business
  • Employee-owned vehicles driven for commercial purposes
  • Business-owned vehicles driven by employees while they are off the clock
  • Vehicles hired or rented for commercial purposes
  • Certain personal vehicles that qualify as commercial due to size or weight specifications
  • Keep in mind, commuting to work in your personal car does not necessitate commercial vehicle insurance.

What Does Commercial Auto Insurance Cover?

Most business auto policies offer numerous benefits, including:

  • Liability Insurance: When an accident is considered your fault, this part of the policy helps pay damages to the other party:
    • Bodily Injury Coverage: This part of the policy pays for medical expenses to the other party.
    • Property Damage Liability Coverage: This pays for damage to the other party’s property.
  • Hired/Non-Owned Auto Liability Insurance: This liability coverage extends to vehicles not owned by the business but used by them for business purposes. These might include employees’ personal cars or vehicles that you rent or hire to use temporarily. Employees are still obligated to carry personal auto insurance even if their employer has this benefit.
  • Collision Insurance: This covers damage to your own vehicle that you sustained in a wreck.
  • Comprehensive Insurance: This part of the policy pays for damages other than collision. Damages caused by fire, theft, vandalism or weather damage.
  • Medical Payments Coverage/Personal Injury Protection: If you get hurt in an accident, this coverage can pay for your medical bills and the people in your car. Sometimes, it will cover other losses, such as lost income.
  • Uninsured/underinsured Insurance: This insures you against damage caused by someone else who doesn’t have appropriate liability coverage. If you are the victim of a hit-and-run, for example, then this coverage can pay for your car’s damage.

Additionally, other policies and endorsements might help you expand your benefits, such as:

  • Inland marine insurance
  • Roadside assistance & rental car reimbursement
  • Custom parts coverage
  • Replacement cost vehicle coverage
  • Gap insurance

How is Commercial Auto Insurance Calculated?

Our job is to help you get the right types and amounts of auto insurance for you. First, all Missouri drivers are required to carry at least the following coverage:

  • $25,000 bodily injury coverage per person.
  • $50,000 bodily injury coverage per accident.
  • $25,000 property damage.
  • $25,000 uninsured motorist bodily injury coverage per person.
  • $50,000 uninsured motorist bodily injury coverage per accident.

Variety of factors can determine the cost of your commercial truck insurance. Your driving record, your age, type of cargo hauling, your radius of operation and number of drivers or coverage requirements. Commercial auto policies for a landscaper will be lower than a tractor-trailer hauling goods nationwide.
Additionally, if you finance your vehicle(s) then you might be required to purchase collision, comprehensive and/or gap insurance per your lender’s requirements.

It is highly recommended that you carry higher liability insurance than just the minimum coverage. The more you have, the better your business will be able to withstand the financial blow that will come from vehicle accidents.

Types of discounts available to you:

  • Having prior insurance, even if it is a personal auto policy.
  • Possessing a CDL license can help you with the insurance rates.
  • Length of driving experience
  • Paying the insurance premium in full offers significant discounts.
  • Multi-policy discount: Having multiple products insured with the same insurance carrier can offer you good discounts (i.e. commercial auto and general liability).
