Running a business that involves the use of buses means you or your hired drivers are transporting people – whether across town or across the state. Because you deal with the public, you need the right insurance to cover your vehicles and potential injuries to your passengers in the event of an accident on the road.

Perhaps you run a sightseeing company, or you have a church or camp that has a bus for transporting people. Or maybe you lease buses to city schools, churches, sports teams, activity groups or senior centers. How do you find commercial bus insurance to cover your risks?

Who Needs Bus Insurance?

Commercial business insurance provides wide-ranging protection for businesses and their subsidiaries under a single policy. There are various types of commercial business insurance that takes care of property, liability and workers’ compensation, to name a few. While property insurance covers damages to business property and products stored within the premises; liability insurance provides coverage for damages to third parties; and workers’ compensation insurance covers injuries to employees. 

Commercial business insurance is an important aspect of any business that cannot be ignored especially if the business premises are leased or rented and even otherwise. Whatever your commercial insurance needs, we can design a protection program that’s right for you.

What Does Commercial Bus Insurance Cover?

Similar to auto insurance, commercial bus insurance can be broken up into several types of coverage. Due to the large size of a bus, it can cause extensive damages and injuries in an accident, so it is important to evaluate the appropriate limits on your coverage based on the potential costs of an accident.
Commercial bus insurance policy will typically include the following:

  • Liability insurance: Liability is the most important coverage in your policy; it covers your company in case one of your buses is involved in an accident in which you or one of your hired bus drivers is at fault. Liability coverage has two parts:
    Bodily injury: This portion of the liability policy covers the costs of medical care for a driver or passengers in another vehicle involved in the accident.
  • Property damage: This portion of the policy covers the costs of damage done to other vehicles or other people’s property.
  • Collision coverage: This insurance covers damage to your vehicle, regardless of who is at fault in the accident.
  • Medical payments coverage: Pays for your medical expenses in the event of an accident, as well as those of your passengers. If any of your passengers do not have health insurance, or if anyone injured on the bus has high deductible health insurance, medical payments coverage can help cover the costs.
  • Comprehensive coverage: Comprehensive, or “other than collision” coverage, compensates you for loss due to things like vandalism fire, theft or damage from an object.
  • Uninsured/underinsured motorists:. Covers your accident costs if the driver at fault does not have sufficient insurance to pay for your damages.

How Much Does Commercial Bus Insurance Cost?

Rates for commercial bus insurance vary considerably, depending upon the number of vehicles you have, the use of the buses, how far they drive and other factors. Some of the factors that go into the cost of your commercial bus insurance policy include:

  • Whether you have a single bus or a fleet.
  • The number of seats in each of the buses.
  • The driving records and experience of your drivers.
  • The number of miles you expect your bus to travel in a year.
  • The type of business you have and the purposes of the bus or fleet.
  • The insurance company you choose and the available discounts.

How Does Bus Insurance Differ From Policy to Policy?

Depending on how you use your bus, you may want to add additional riders or optional coverage types to your policy. For example if your passengers are children, you may want to protect your company financially if a driver or employee is accused of abuse or molestation. You can also consider excess liability coverage, known as an umbrella policy. Umbrella policies can dramatically increase your liability coverage limits to protect your business from liability claims that result in a lawsuit.
