Commercial auto liability coverage provides protection for any business-owned or leased commercial vehicle.

It’s crucial to have coverage on your business-owned or leased vehicles. If you, or an employee experience an accident in your business’s car, you may be liable for bodily injuries, lost wages or any damage caused.
