Trucking Liability Insurance

Logistics Term

What’s Trucking Liability Insurance?

This service is required to be done on a “scheduled vehicle” basis. Scheduled means that each insured truck under your authority is listed on the insurance policy. Another way of doing it is on an “any auto” basis, which means that no vehicle schedule changes are required. This caters to non-owned, owned, subcontracted, hired, and even private passenger vehicles. Remember that the federally-needed liability insurance is also influenced by the gross weight of the truck. Finally, the insurance also covers any hospital bills incurred by the other motorist in case of an accident.
