Transportation insurance, also known as commercial truck insurance or trucking insurance, helps protect you or the drivers for your company when they’re out on the road. Without truck insurance, you could face huge expenses after an accident.

You are required by law to carry at least minimum liability insurance. Without it, you or your drivers can be cited or have vehicles impounded for failure to follow the law. For this reason, you are asked for proof of insurance whenever you register a truck with the DMV and other regulatory entities, as dictated by your business.
