From delivery vans navigating I-15 through Salt Lake City to service trucks headed out to job sites in Utah County, vehicles are essential to many local businesses. Commercial auto insurance protects that investment and keeps your business moving after an accident.
Who Needs Commercial Auto Insurance
Any Utah business that owns, leases, or regularly uses vehicles for business purposes needs commercial auto coverage, even if it’s just a single truck or van. This includes contractors, landscapers, delivery services, real estate agents, and any company where employees drive personal vehicles for business errands, which may require hired and non-owned auto coverage.
What Commercial Auto Policies Cover
A typical commercial auto policy includes liability coverage for injuries and property damage you cause to others, physical damage coverage for your own vehicles from collision or comprehensive events, medical payments coverage, and uninsured or underinsured motorist protection.
Utah Driving Risks Business Owners Should Consider
Utah’s growing population has increased traffic congestion along the Wasatch Front, particularly on I-15 and I-80. Winter weather, including snow and ice in mountain areas and along major commuting corridors, adds another layer of risk for businesses that operate vehicles year-round.
Hired and Non-Owned Auto Coverage
If your employees use their own vehicles for work purposes, such as making deliveries or visiting client sites, your business could still be liable in an accident. Hired and non-owned auto coverage fills this important gap that a personal auto policy typically will not cover.
How to Manage Fleet Insurance Costs
Utah businesses can help manage commercial auto premiums by maintaining clean driving records among employees, using dash cams or telematics, performing regular vehicle maintenance, and bundling auto coverage with other commercial policies.
