According to federal law, trucking companies and tractor trailer drivers must carry commercial auto insurance with at least the minimum amount of required liability coverage.
Liability insurance helps pay for third-party property damage and injuries. Coverage options depend on the vehicle type, information about the driver and the goods they haul.
There are two main types of liability coverage included with commercial auto liability insurance:
Bodily injury liability coverage helps pay for third-party injuries in an accident caused by the tractor trailer driver.
Property damage liability coverage helps pay for third-party property damage caused by the tractor trailer driver.
