## What Is Gallagher’s Role in Commercial Auto Insurance?

- Gallagher Small Business arranges commercial auto coverage with partner carriers rather than underwriting the policy itself. [1](https://www.gallaghersmallbusiness.com/insurance-products/auto/ "Commercial Auto Insurance") (Evidence: Company-reported; scope: Gallagher Small Business's direct-to-small-business commercial auto product page.)

## Who Is Gallagher Commercial Auto Insurance For?

- Gallagher recommends this coverage for businesses that use vehicles for business purposes, including owned, hired and non-owned autos, rented or leased vehicles, and employees who drive their own cars for work. [1](https://www.gallaghersmallbusiness.com/insurance-products/auto/ "Commercial Auto Insurance") (Evidence: Company-reported; scope: Product page "Recommended for businesses that" list; actual acceptance depends on underwriting.)

## Coverage Features of Gallagher Commercial Auto Insurance

- Gallagher describes commercial auto as covering bodily injury and property damage to third parties, accidents caused by uninsured or underinsured drivers, physical damage to owned, rented, hired or employee vehicles, and medical costs for the business owner, employees and passengers, plus theft and damage. [1](https://www.gallaghersmallbusiness.com/insurance-products/auto/ "Commercial Auto Insurance") (Evidence: Company-reported; scope: Product page coverage list; the issued policy and its exclusions control.)
- Gallagher's small-business team says the commercial auto market remains challenging because of social inflation and the long-tail nature of auto liability claims, and that rising repair costs from added vehicle electronics and safety features, plus supply-chain delays, are increasing claim costs. [1](https://www.gallaghersmallbusiness.com/insurance-products/auto/ "Commercial Auto Insurance") (Evidence: Company-reported; scope: Product page market-commentary section; a general market view, not a quote for any specific business.)
- Gallagher illustrates the coverage gap when a personal vehicle is used for business: it describes a bakery owner whose personal auto insurer refused to pay a delivery-related accident claim because she lacked commercial auto insurance. [1](https://www.gallaghersmallbusiness.com/insurance-products/auto/ "Commercial Auto Insurance") (Evidence: Company-reported; scope: Product page hypothetical claim scenario; illustrative example, not a report of an actual claim outcome.)
