Non-Trucking Liability (Bobtail Liability)

| Description: |
Non-Trucking Liability (Bobtail
Coverage) provides limited liability insurance for owner-operators
who are permanently leased to an ICC regulated carrier. It provides
limited liability protection when the owner-operator is not on dispatch,
nor pulling a loaded trailer. For example, this coverage would apply
when the owner-operator gets their truck washed or brings their trucks
into a shop for repairs. Once the owner-operator is under dispatch, they
are covered under the Primary Liability insurance policy of the company
that they are leased to. |
