Oklahoma Commercial Auto Insurance
Keep Your Business Vehicles and Drivers Protected on Oklahoma Roads
Commercial auto insurance covers vehicles owned by or used in your business, providing liability protection and physical damage coverage for your business fleet. Personal auto policies specifically exclude business use, meaning that if an employee is involved in an accident while driving for work purposes, your business could face significant uninsured liability without a commercial auto policy in place.
Oklahoma requires all vehicles to carry minimum liability insurance, but commercial vehicles often need higher limits due to the greater potential for serious accidents. Businesses with employees who drive their personal vehicles for work also need Hired and Non-Owned Auto coverage, as those vehicles are not covered under a standard commercial auto policy.
Coverage Options
Commercial Auto Liability
Covers bodily injury and property damage that your business vehicles cause to others. Oklahoma requires minimum liability limits, but commercial vehicles — especially trucks and vans — can cause significant damage in an accident, making higher limits essential. This coverage pays for the other party's medical bills, property repairs, and legal costs.
Physical Damage Coverage
Protects your business vehicles from damage caused by collisions, theft, vandalism, fire, and weather events. Collision coverage pays for accident damage regardless of fault, while comprehensive coverage handles non-collision losses. Both are essential for protecting your investment in your business fleet.
Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist Coverage
Protects your business and drivers if they are involved in an accident with a driver who has no insurance or insufficient coverage. Given the number of uninsured drivers in Oklahoma, this coverage ensures your business vehicles and employees are protected even when the at-fault driver cannot pay.
Hired and Non-Owned Auto Coverage
Covers liability arising from vehicles your business rents, leases, or borrows (hired auto) and from employees using their personal vehicles for business purposes (non-owned auto). This is critical for businesses that don't own vehicles but have employees who drive for work, such as making deliveries or visiting clients.
Medical Payments Coverage
Pays for medical expenses for your drivers and passengers injured in a covered accident, regardless of fault. This coverage provides immediate financial support for injured employees and passengers without waiting for a liability determination, helping manage the human cost of vehicle accidents.

Personal auto policies typically exclude business use, leaving your business exposed.
