Those who have a company where commercial driving is involved need to have commercial auto insurance because anything could happen on the road/highway. Also, freelance commercial drivers should have the same type of coverage even though they work for themselves. They too should have commercial auto insurance because they could very easily, accidently hit someone in a little sedan that they couldn't see on the road because they are positioned so high-up. So to cover yourself, those with the use of commercial trucks, should have commercial auto insurance. And know their is a difference between regular car insurance and commercial auto insurance. Just like their is a difference between having a CDL license and a regular driver's license.
