Your personal auto coverage will not cover their vehicles. What they are probably asking for is to make sure you have coverage in case you drive your vehicle on errands or such for the company. If you go to the post office to get the company mail your personal auto insurance will be the primary insurance and then if they have an endorsement to their insurance called "hired and non-owned auto" it will provide secondary coverage over and above your coverage to protect them in case of an accident. Their coverage insists that you as the employee have primary insurance on your vehicle. Also note that the company insurance will not pay for damage to your vehicle.

Does your insurance cover you to drive a car that has no insurance?

Your personal auto insurance will be secondary to the insurance of the vehicle that you are driving (assuming you do not own it and it is not a business vehicle). If you get involved in a car accident while you are operating a vehicle that is -not- yours, then the insurance of that vehicle has to pay first, and if that insurance is not enough (or is not there) then your insurance will kick in. Notice that if you get pulled over by police they will ask you to show proof of insurance on the vehicle (not your insurance.) The law requires all vehicles to be insured, not individuals.

When is the best time to ask for a car insurance quote in Missouri?

There is no time of the year that is better than another when it comes to purchasing car insurance. No matter what time of year you purchased the car insurance will have to pay the same yearly, or semi-yearly premium. However if you are about to purchase a vehicle, or if you have just received a vehicle as a gift it would be better for you to purchase car insurance before you start to drive your vehicle. Driving your vehicle without car insurance is irresponsible.


Can your employer force you to put the company name on your auto insurance if you drive your personal vehicle to do company business?

If the employer is compensating you for the use of your truck, i.e, a mileage rate, then yes they can ask to be listed as an additional insured. However, if they fail to pay you anything for the use of your vehicle, they have no right to demand anything regarding your vehicle. It should also be noted that if you have an accident while in the performance of your employment, they are ultimately liable. Make sure you inform your carrier that you are using the truck for their work - then watch your rates go through the roof.
