Why do gas stations need insurance?

From robberies to fuel tank fires, running a gas station can be a risky endeavor. Business insurance provides peace of mind by covering medical bills from injuries, property repairs, and legal fees if a customer sues. Some policies, such as workers' compensation, may be required by law.
