            Commercial Auto Insurance

            Business Auto
            Insurance Makes Your
            Business a Priority


            Your business deserves high priority protection, and that’s just what The Hartford’s commercial auto Insurance does. It provides coverage for you, your employees and the vehicles you own, lease, rent or borrow – on the road and off. More importantly, it can help prevent an accident from damaging your bottom line.
            Whether you’re operating a single vehicle or a fleet, The Hartford offers you ways to help protect your company, manage risks and help control your costs.

            Putting the Brakes on Damages

            An automotive mishap can expose your business to complex high exposure, putting its assets at risk. Without the right commerical vehicle insurance coverage, you as the business owner may even find yourself personally responsible.
            Meanwhile, the loss of cars, vans, trucks or specialty vehicles can hamper your ability to operate your business, threaten hard-won customers and hurt business relationships. Accidents can damage your reputation, and put in question your concern for employee and public safety.
            So, don’t let a split-second bout of bad luck put a business that took years to build in jeopardy.

            Extra Protection. No Additional Cost.

            The Hartford commercial auto insurance offers extra protection your business may require at no additional cost, including:
            Hired Auto Physical Damage
            Hired or borrowed vehicles can be covered for up to $100,000 for physical damage – as long as these vehicles have liability coverage, and your vehicles carry physical damage coverage.
            Lease or Loan Gap Coverage
            When there’s a gap between the value of the vehicle and the amount owed to the lien holder, this coverage fills that gap.
            Electronic Equipment Coverage
            Now popular electronic devices like a GPS or DVD player are covered, up to $1,500 – as long as these devices are permanently installed.
            Efficient Claim Service
            If you have an accident, a team of people from one of our many claims service centers will swing into action. They’ll expedite your claim, carefully evaluate complex business exposure, and handle the details. Programs and services are available to mid-size and large businesses.

            Programs and Services available to mid-size and large businesses:
             

            FleetAhead
            This program uses telematics and real-time data to help fleet owners identify risk and prevent accidents. Participating companies can get a 15% discount on their premiums.
            Loss Control
            We provide fleet owners in-depth analysis of your company’s driver safety records, and help you pinpoint root causes of accidents and formulate preventative strategies.
            The Principles of 3D Driving
            The Hartford’s loss control organization can help you instruct your drivers in the techniques of 3-D Driving: Drive Decisively. Drive Defensively. Drive Dependably.
