Does commercial umbrella insurance cover auto accidents for contractors?

Auto accidents are one of the most common umbrella triggers for contractors. A serious multi-vehicle accident, a pedestrian injury, or a commercial truck accident can easily generate claims of $2M or more.

Your commercial auto policy covers the first $1M (or whatever your CSL limit is). The umbrella steps in for everything above that limit, up to the umbrella limit. $1M auto + $2M umbrella = $3M total auto liability protection.

Umbrella also extends over hired and non-owned auto (HNOA) coverage if your commercial auto policy includes it. Employee personal vehicle use covered by HNOA has umbrella protection above the HNOA limit.
