Do I need commercial auto insurance for my business vehicle?

Yes, if you use a vehicle for business purposes. Personal auto policies typically exclude business use, and driving a personal vehicle for business without proper coverage can leave you unprotected in an accident.

What's the difference between personal and commercial auto insurance?

Commercial auto policies cover higher liability limits, multiple drivers, and business-specific risks. They also cover vehicles owned by the business, not just the individual. Personal policies exclude most business use.

Does commercial auto cover my employees driving their own cars for work?

Not automatically. You need Hired & Non-Owned Auto (HNOA) coverage to protect against liability when employees use their personal vehicles for business errands. HNOA can be added to your commercial auto or general liability policy.

How much commercial auto coverage do I need?

Oregon requires minimum liability limits, but most businesses need higher limits to adequately protect their assets. The right amount depends on your fleet size, vehicle types, and the nature of your business operations.

Can I insure a mixed fleet of vehicles?

Yes. Commercial auto policies can cover a variety of vehicle types — from passenger cars and vans to trucks and specialty vehicles — under a single fleet policy. Gerald Ross Agency can help you structure the right fleet program.

What if my employee gets in an accident with a company vehicle?

Your commercial auto policy covers accidents involving company vehicles, regardless of which authorized employee is driving. Proper driver screening and vehicle maintenance can help keep your premiums competitive.
