North Carolina law

Lower your rate
How to save money on your policy
- Run MVR checks on all drivers before adding them to a commercial policy — one driver with violations can significantly raise your fleet rate
- Implement a formal vehicle use policy and document it — carriers offer better rates for businesses with written safety policies
- Consider hired and non-owned auto coverage if employees use personal vehicles for business — their personal policies may not cover business use
- Bundle commercial auto with your GL or BOP if the same carrier writes both
Mistakes worth avoiding
- Assuming personal auto policies extend to business use
- Not covering employees who use personal vehicles for company errands
- Underinsuring cargo being transported
