Our commercial auto insurance program includes the following critical coverages:

Bodily Injury Liability

If you're in an accident while driving your sedan or limo and there are third-party injuries for which you are found to be responsible, the policy will pay for the related expenses and bills, including medical care, hospital payments, and rehabilitation. It will also pay for defense costs and settlements or judgments that may result from a claim, up to the policy limits.

Property Damage Liability

If you're in an accident while driving and someone else's vehicle or property is damage, the policy will pay for repairs or replacement of the damaged vehicle or property.

Medical Payments

This coverage protects the driver and the passengers in your limousine or sedan. In the event that your vehicle is involved in an accident and the operator or the passengers get injured, the policy will pay for the medical expenses arising from the accident.

Collision

Offers protection for your limo or sedan if it collides with another vehicle or a physical object, and pays for the costs of the limo repairs or replacement.

Comprehensive

Protects your vehicle from accidents other than a collision. In the event of theft, vandalism, fire, or hailstorm damages to your vehicle, the policy will pay for vehicle repairs or replacement.

Uninsured or Underinsured Motorists

Protects you against drivers of other vehicles who do not carry liability coverage or who do not have enough insurance to cover the full extent of the damage if they are responsible for the accident.

Commercial auto insurance for limois and sedans as well as other vehicles in the public transportation industry typically have higher rates than other business segments. This is largely because of the inherent risk or exposure due to the nature of public transportation. Limousine and sedan owners make money when they are transporting passengers. However, the risks increase when the wheels are always turning. This is different from other industries, such as professional services, that may use commercial vehicles to run errands. That said, there are many factors that contribute to insurance premiums. They include:

Your Location

Your geography plays a role in how much insurance coverage costs. You may pay more in a larger city than in a smaller town.

Vehicle Types, Values and Sizes

As a rule of thumb, larger and more valuable vehicles have higher insurance premiums than smaller and less valuable vehicles.

Driving History

Your driving experience matters to insurance companies. You can expect insurers to collect motor vehicle reports for drivers on your policy for the last three years. The drivers on your policy with multiple accidents and violations will cause your premiums to increase.

Coverage Requirements

The coverage and limits you choose will have an impact on the overall premium. For example, higher liability limits or coverage equates to a higher premium as opposed to state minimum limits. Forge Insurance has a wide range of coverage options to help you tailor a commercial auto policy to fit your needs at an affordable price.

If you are in search of the cheapest commercial auto insurance, there are ways to lower your premium. First, keep a clean driving record. Driving history is one of the largest impacts on premium. Second, change your coverage limits and deductibles. For example, you can decrease your combined single limit from $300,000 to $100,000 or increase your deductible to share more of the risk. However, you may pay more out-of-pocket in case of an accident. Finally, Forge Insurance offers both paid-in-full and commercial drivers license (CDL) discounts. These discounts will help you save money on commercial auto insurance. The best advice is to tailor a commercial auto policy that offers the best coverage at a price you can afford. Let Forge Insurance help you customize a policy that fits into your unique cost and value situation.

Insurance companies generally have a set of black car and limo insurance requirements and rating factors you'll need to consider. These might include:

• The vehicle's make and model
• The vehicle's length – your insurance company may have guidelines for stretched vehicles
• The age of the vehicle – older cars may not be acceptable
• Minimum coverage limits and your deductibles – you may be required to carry higher limits than state minimum coverage

The state, or states, where you operate might have additional or different requirements. Be sure to check with your local DMV for exact requirements or restrictions.
