Auto Transporter Insurance: Coverage and our Benefit's

1. Auto Hauler Constructive Total Loss

A new auto that is damaged while being transported that can be repaired to a safe driving condition, but not new car condition. A driver damages the roof of a new Audi. Although it would only cost $6,000 to repair the roof, Audi will crush the car due to liability concerns. Most insurers are only going to pay $6,000 for this claim with the car hauler paying the difference out-of-pocket. The Auto Transporter Protector Program will pay the cost of the car, allowing the shipper (your customer) to determine the classification of damages, not the insurance company. The Car Hauler Insurance Program protects your relationship with your customer offering your company an advantage over your competitors!

2. Auto Hauler Over height loads

If a load is too high and damage occurs while passing under a bridge or low structure spanning across the roadway overhead, the Car Hauler Insurance Program covers this type of loss. Many policies do not include even this basic coverage.

3. Auto Hauler Diminished Value

The actual or perceived loss in market value or resale value that results from a direct or accidental loss to an auto being transported. When hauling new automobiles, your driver is unloading a new car worth $50,000, hits a pole and does $6,000 damage to the car. Once the car is repaired, the dealer may only be able to sell the car for $40,000 due to the damage. Most policy coverage is only going to pay $6,000 (less the deductible) to fix the car. The dealer will seek the remaining $10,000 from the owner operator, which the owner operator pays out-of-pocket. The Car Haulers Protector Insurance Program will pay that dealer the $10,000 and keep you moving down the road with peace of mind. You shouldn't have to be driven out of business because you made a mistake. Most policies consider this “consequential damage” and do not cover this loss leaving you holding the bag.

4. Auto Hauler Burglary or Theft from Unattended Vehicle

When a tractor/trailer is left unattended and a theft or accident occurs, many policies have numerous exclusions to avoid covering this type of loss. The Car Hauler Insurance Program covers this loss if normal reasonable measures are taken. Attention must be given to the details of any cargo policy to verify coverage against this type of loss. The size of the potential financial risk in this scenario can be devastating.

Auto Hauler Insurance Coverage’s

1. Auto Liability

Bodily Injury Liability - is the legal obligation that stems from the injury or death of another person. If your driver is found at fault in an accident that injures someone in the other vehicle involved. An example of this is the injuries sustained by the occupants of the vehicle your driver collides with.

2. Property Damage Liability

Pays the cost of defense and claims for damage the insured does to the property of others. An example of this is when your driver strikes a parked car.

3. Uninsured Motorist Coverage

Is the coverage for drivers and passengers in your vehicle when bodily injury is caused by another motorist who does not carry liability coverage. Uninsured Motorist Coverage is similar to Bodily Injury coverage. Uninsured Motorist property damage covers your auto when property damage is sustained by an insured and the negligent operator does not possess insurance. Some states have limits at $3500. If you have Collision coverage, Uninsured Motorist Property Damage coverage only pays your collision deductible (in some states).
