Was going over some insurance requirements for one of my contractors today. I control the GL and WC. The Vendor was requiring that plus owned, hired and non owned auto with $1 million limits. So he needs to add commercial auto, right?
Find out his personal lines agent has been filling out a certificate that provides the owned auto with limits at $1,250,000/person $1,500,000/occurrence because the guy has a personal umbrella policy.
News to me, this general contractor has four trucks with four employees driving, all insured under a personal auto policy, with all trucks titled in his personal name. The Agent told him all will be covered for the business use, and the umbrella will give him the $1 mill limits that this Vendor requires.
So I'm trying to point out the problems with this, and all he wants is to make sure I can endorse the hired and non owned.
What personal lines carriers do not have a problem with this? Other agent is telling him that it is all good. If these units are strictly used for business with employees usage, I'm seeing a problem with that umbrella responding...
