Handyman Insurance, What is Business Auto Insurance
It is important to know that your business owners policy (BOP) does not provide any coverage for vehicles, so you must have a separate policy.
Most states will require you to purchase liability insurance for bodily injury and property damage that may result from a vehicle accident occurring while you or someone from your organization is driving on business. In addition many states also require you to have uninsured/underinsured motorists coverage and/or medical payments coverage. You can also purchase physical damage coverage for vehicles your business owns, leases or hires.
The Business Auto Coverage Form is the most commonly used contract for providing business auto liability insurance. Although the form refers only to “autos,” autos are defined to include cars, trucks, trailers, vans or other vehicles designed for use on public roads.
Each vehicle you use in your business can be separately “scheduled,” or listed on your policy along with corresponding coverage’s. In other words, you can choose different coverage’s, for your various vehicles, depending on the vehicle’s characteristics and the coverage you need for it.
