What is commercial auto insurance?

Commercial auto insurance covers business vehicles for things like:

  • Damage to your vehicle(s)
  • Driver injury
  • Injury to someone else
  • Damage to someone else's property

Commercial auto policies usually offer higher coverage limits than personal policies; this is because business vehicles require greater protection in the event of accidents. The policy limit for an insurance policy may vary based on the vehicle type. Speak to a GEICO insurance specialist to find the best coverage tailored to your needs.

Commercial auto insurance is similar to a personal auto insurance policy. It can cover liabilities, collisions, comprehensive, medical payments (or personal injury protection), underinsured (UIM) and uninsured motorists (UM). In some states, UM/UIM coverages are not required and can be declined in writing.

Note that there are differences between a commercial auto insurance policy and personal auto insurance policy. These differences include eligibility, definitions, coverages, exclusions, and limitations.

Various factors that increase the likelihood of filing a claim can influence commercial auto insurance rates. One significant factor is the driving records of the individuals operating the vehicles. A history of accidents, traffic violations, or DUIs can raise premiums due to the higher risk.

External variables like industry regulations, market trends, and insurance industry dynamics can also influence premiums. Understanding these factors is crucial for businesses seeking comprehensive and competitive commercial auto insurance coverage tailored to their needs.
