Key Differences in Commercial Auto Insurance

Optional Hired Auto Versus Named Gaps

Coverdash treats hired-and-non-owned auto as optional coverage for rented or personal vehicles used for business. TechInsurance says commercial auto does not cover personal, leased, or rented vehicles used for work (those need hired and non-owned auto), a newly purchased vehicle not yet added, or damage to a customer’s vehicle in the business’s care (garage keepers). Both describe a placement for businesses that own or use vehicles; neither reviewed page names the issuing insurer. 4 7

Medical Payments Versus MedPay, PIP, and UM

Coverdash lists medical payments as one of four core protections, alongside third-party injury, third-party property damage, and physical damage. TechInsurance lists bodily injury and property damage liability, medical payments or PIP where required, uninsured-motorist coverage, and optional collision and comprehensive. Coverdash’s reviewed page does not name PIP or uninsured-motorist coverage. 4 7

Coverdash’s commercial auto page and FAQ do not publish limit amounts, deductibles, or premium figures, and say liability requirements vary by state. TechInsurance reports a median of $245 per month among its commercial auto customers and says premium depends on vehicles, driving records, options, claims history, deductible, and limits, without publishing a sample limit table. Coverdash’s reviewed page does not report a median premium. 4 7
