Small business owners often have a lot on their plates. Besides running the core business and dealing with employees, customers, and suppliers, they also have to handle a range of paperwork and legal issues. As a result, they sometimes take shortcuts. One such shortcut is sometimes relying on their personal auto insurance coverage for business vehicle use. To avoid such a costly mistake, talk to the CO Insurance Specialist team of Wheat Ridge, CO, regarding your commercial and commercial vehicle insurance needs.<\/p>\n
The insurance needs of small businesses can differ due to legal structure, industry, and the types of vehicles used in the business. While most owners acquire the necessary insurance to protect them and their assets, many misunderstand which activities constitute business usage. Not only is commercial vehicle insurance needed for vans that deliver goods, transport people, or haul tools and equipment, but passenger vehicles used for business purposes also require commercial vehicle insurance.<\/p>\n
A personal policy will not cover vehicles owned or leased by the business and should not be relied on when the owner or an employee uses vehicles for business purposes. These situations include driving clients or employees to lunch or a business meeting. Delivering products or reports to clients or work locations may also constitute business vehicle usage that a commercial vehicle policy should cover. Insurance companies are especially likely to investigate high-value claims and may reject a business claim against a personal policy when the insurance coverage is most needed.<\/p>\n
