The Road to Transportation Insurance Is with Us

The commercial transportation insurance industry has been hit hard. Over the last several years, there has been a significant spike in the frequency and severity of auto liability claims, exacerbated by an increasingly more aggressive plaintiff bar with nuclear awards and settlements running in the tens, even hundreds of millions, of dollars. Add to this a shortage of experienced drivers and rising property damage and replacement costs due to the advanced technology utilized in today’s vehicles, and you have a challenging commercial automobile market.
