Preventing Transportation Claims

Details
Category: Risk Management

Big vehicles bring big risk. Property damage is an ongoing hazard on and off the road, and a single serious incident can lead to a claim that impacts your ability to continue your operations.

Repair costs have increased over the years as more vehicles feature more advanced technology – but that’s just the tip of the iceberg. In fact, costs after a collision or other transport-related incident can come from all angles: property damage can be steep when a heavy commercial vehicle is involved, and injured parties can claim accident benefits. Keep in mind that your company’s reputation can also suffer tremendously if your fleet is frequently involved in collisions or unsafe driving events.

The good news is there are measures you can take to avoid transportation claims. While there’s no guaranteed escape from a sudden event or the attention of a savvy criminal, it pays to know your risks and your tools to manage them. Here are some of the most common causes of transportation claims, along with tips on how to coordinate your efforts to avoid them.
