Cargo Protection

Motor Truck Cargo

Example Scenario: Typically assists in reimbursing the shipper for qualifying cargo losses after a trailer break-in at a rest stop.
Fleet Assets

Physical Damage

Typically offers financial support to repair or replace your trucks, trailers, and rigs following accidents, overturns, fire, or severe weather.

Bobtail Coverage

Non-Trucking Liability

Example Scenario: Typically helps address liability claims if a driver encounters an accident while operating the bobtail tractor off-duty.
Terminal & Yard

General Liability

Is typically designed to help cover injuries and property damage occurring around terminal yards, loading docks, offices, or drop-off facilities.

Example Scenario: Typically helps cover medical treatment costs if a visiting vendor slips and falls in your fleet maintenance facility.
Driver Protection

Workers’ Compensation

Is typically structured to help fulfill state requirements for commercial drivers and dockworkers by covering work-related injury expenses.

Example Scenario: Typically helps reimburse medical treatment and partial lost wages for a driver injured while unloading cargo.
Non-Owned Equipment

High Limit Security

What Transportation Insurance Typically Does NOT Cover

Transportation policies require strict DOT compliance, driver safety protocols, and cargo security standards. Standard exclusions include:

✕ Wear, Tear & Mechanical Breakdown: Engine failure, electrical faults, transmission wear, and gradual tire degradation resulting from routine vehicle use.
✕ Unattended Cargo & Theft: Stolen freight left in unlocked or unmonitored trailers overnight without approved security lock protocols.
✕ Unlicensed or Unlisted Drivers: Vehicle collisions occurring while commercial trucks are operated by drivers without active CDLs or unapproved hired operators.
✕ Hazardous Materials / Spills: Environmental chemical spills, explosives, or hazardous contamination without specialized hazmat endorsements and FMCSA filings.
FLEET TIP: Conduct routine driver MVR background checks, enforce mandatory trailer lock procedures during layovers, and maintain digital vehicle inspection logs (DVIR) to ensure full policy compliance.
