Truckers Auto Liability
Trucking is a tough job and truckers are often driving long distances for long hours to deliver cargo on time. These long hours coupled with the complexity of handling heavy cargo, can sometimes get to even the best of truckers. Unfortunately, accidents happen even with proper planning and execution in place.
Physical Damage Coverage
Physical damage coverage is a general term for a group of insurance coverages that includes Comprehensive and Collision. Physical damage is inclusive of these two types of coverages with most insurance carriers and may include other miscellaneous optional coverages depending on the insurance carrier.
Cargo coverage
Cargo coverage is essential for truckers since the Comprehensive General Liability (CGL) of the trucker’s policy does not cover “Goods of Others.” Because the trucker is a “bailee” under common law, they are responsible for any damages to the load. Shippers need coverage to protect their property, while state and federal regulatory agencies also require coverage.
What Does the General Liability Insurance Cover for Truck Drivers?
Even if you’re the best driver in the world and take all the necessary precautions, you can’t avoid the unknowns as a result of just being “in business”. When you are running any business, there are situations where you could be found liable. General Liability is that coverage which “closes gaps” and provides cover in the general operation of your business.
