What Is Commercial Auto Insurance?
Commercial auto insurance covers vehicles used for business purposes. Personal auto policies typically do NOT cover business use—this is where commercial coverage is critical.
Here’s what that looks like in real life:
- Your work truck is involved in an accident on the way to a job site
- An employee causes an accident while driving a company vehicle
- Your vehicle is damaged in a collision
- Your truck is stolen or vandalized
- A third party is injured in an accident involving your vehicle
Commercial auto insurance typically covers:
- Liability (bodily injury & property damage)
- Vehicle damage (collision & comprehensive)
- Medical payments
- Uninsured/underinsured motorist coverage
If your vehicle is used for work, personal auto insurance is not enough.
Why Commercial Auto Insurance Matters in San Antonio
San Antonio roads are busy—and business vehicles are on them every day.
Common risks include:
- Heavy traffic and congestion
- Accidents during work travel
- Employee drivers
- Theft and vandalism
- Weather events like hail
Here’s the reality:
- A single accident can cost $20,000–$100,000+
- Injury claims can exceed six figures
- Vehicle replacement costs continue to rise
Without proper coverage, your business could be responsible for all damages.
With commercial auto insurance, you protect your vehicles, your drivers, and your business.
