Commercial auto insurance

All business-owned vehicles in Pennsylvania must be covered by commercial auto insurance.

It can be added to general liability insurance or a business owner's policy.

Pennsylvania’s commercial auto insurance requirements are:

  • Bodily injury liability: $15,000 per person / $30,000 per accident
  • Property damage liability: $5,000 per accident
