3. Workers Compensation - if its just you, and you alone, you are not required to have this. If you hire anyone, even a "day laborer" on a cash-only basis - you really need to have this coverage to protect the worker as well as your personal assets.

4. Commercial Auto - for vehicles used in the business. Some personal auto insurers will allow "business use" to be endorsed to the existing policy for a nominal premium

The above coverage is the primary focus for most contractors, including landscapers. Other coverage you may consider are, Life, Health, Tools & Equipment, etc.

Would I be covered on a business fleet insurance policy if I am not listed as a driver?

In terms of Auto Liability...this depends....

1. Does the policy excluded unscheduled drivers? If so, no coverage for you.

2. Did you have permission to use the vehicle? If not, no coverage for you.

If the policy does not exclude unscheduled drivers, and you have permission to use the vehicle, the policy should afford coverage for incidents where you are the driver.

In terms of Medical Payments or other benefit to YOU as the driver....

1. Same questions as above, and more importantly...

2. Is Medical Payments and/or "PIP" coverage is provided on the policy? If no, no coverage for you.

If no Medical Payments and/or "PIP" coverage is provided on the policy, you would need to seek coverage under the Workers Compensation policy. If you are an Excluded Owner under that WC policy, there would be no coverage for you here either.

Remember, these answers are "general" in nature, and may not reflect the exact response from your insurer. I highly recommend contacting your agent for clarification of coverage.

What is automobile liability insurance coverage?

Automobile liability insurance coverage is one of several types of autobile coverage. It is required by the law of most US jurisdictions in order to register a vehicle for operation on public highways. It is often also required to be shown as a condition of obtaining a driver's license.

Automobile liability insurance is intended to cover the negligent acts or omissions of a driver in the operation of the covered motor vehicle. Depending upon whether it is property damage liability coverage, bodily injury liability coverage, or both, it generally covers the correlating kind of damage sustained by the person who was not at fault. In that sense, it is considered to be "third-party" coverage in that it does not pay for the damages sustained by the insured person.

Another aspect of automobile liability coverage is that if the aggrieved party makes a claim against the insured, such as by filing suit, the liability insurer defends the insured by retaining an attorney to defend the insured. The insurer pays the attorney, but also has the right to control the defense, including by settling the claim.
