In the United States, federal law requires that all commercial vehicles and their drivers carry public liability insurance. However, many states require that trucks carry commercial auto coverage, even if they’re leased or rented. To make sure you’re complying with these regulations, speak to your insurance agent. He or she can recommend the right combination of insurance policies to protect your business.

Commercial Trucking Insurance Coverage

In the trucking industry, liability insurance is a must. It helps cover injuries and property damage caused by the truck driver. With commercial liability insurance, there are two types of coverage: third-party and bodily injury. The former covers your legal costs in case of an accident caused by the truck driver. The latter takes care of any injuries to the third party and their property damage as well.
