We’ll create a liability plan tailored to your company, addressing all the risks that leave you and your business vulnerable. Typical coverage selections include:

• Commercial auto liability insurance (available in most states): Tow truck owners must carry auto liability coverage to protect against accident-related injuries and property damage. If a tow truck driver working for your company causes an accident that injures another driver, this insurance will help.
• Commercial general liability insurance: This insurance type provides basic third-party coverage in the case of property damage or bodily injury. It applies to incidents that aren’t related to the vehicles used in your business. For instance, if a customer or visitor at your garage trips over a tool and sustains an injury, general liability insurance will keep you protected.
• Drive-away liability insurance: This form of liability coverage offers protection if you cause injuries or property damage while towing a vehicle to another destination, such as a storage lot or auto auction.
• Wrongful repossession liability insurance: This coverage will protect you if damages arise out of a negligent act, error, omission, or failure to render professional services. Examples include repossessing the wrong vehicle or failing to obtain a written order from the financing company before towing.
• Garage keeper’s legal liability insurance: This insurance protects against damages while an automobile is under your “care, custody, and control.” For instance, if you temporarily store a repossessed vehicle on your property, you’ll have coverage if someone breaks in and vandalizes it.
• On-hook liability insurance: Accidents can occur while you’re towing a vehicle. On-hook insurance will pay for any resulting damages, but only if a portion of the auto is on the ground.
• Alleged assault and battery liability insurance: A vehicle repossession situation could become confrontational. Assault and battery coverage will protect you if an altercation occurs and an injured party decides to sue you.
• Garage keepers direct primary: Unlike garage keeper’s liability, this coverage pays for losses whether or not you’re legally liable.
• Package or mono-line: You can purchase one type of liability insurance or a package plan consisting of several coverages.
• Individual liability: Also known as personal liability, this coverage protects the towing company owner’s personal assets.
• Property coverage: This insurance protects the building and other property owned by the towing business.
• Alleged sexual abuse and molestation liability: Use this coverage to protect yourself and your employees against allegations of sexual misconduct.

Colorado – Alonozo V. Reliant Towing & Recovery

The plaintiff alleged that defendant’s employees breached the peace while they were attempting to repossess her vehicle. The plaintiff claimed that on December 10, 2019, Reliant’s employees knocked on her door to initiate repossession efforts, but she did not answer. Plaintiff claimed in retaliation for not answering when they knocked, Reliant’s employees tried to break into her home and garage, threw rocks, etc. Reliant denied that any of these things happened. Plaintiff filed suit seeking damages for defendant’s alleged violation of the Colorado Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, extreme and outrageous conduct, and invasion of privacy by intrusion. Plaintiff sought damages in excess of $100,000 for emotional distress, punitive damages and attorney’s fees. At the close of evidence during the two day jury trial, Reliant moved for a directed verdict on all of plaintiff’s claims, arguing there was no credible evidence that Reliant’s employees exhibited extreme or outrageous conduct and that there was no evidence of any kind of emotional distress suffered by plaintiff. The trial judge agreed and granted Reliant’s motion for directed verdict on all counts, entering a judgment in favor of the defendant and against the plaintiff, and dismissing the lawsuit, with prejudice.
