Do I need commercial auto insurance in Alabama?
Quick answer:
Yes. Alabama's baseline minimum liability applies to any registered vehicle, personal or commercial: 25/50/25 (25,000 dollars bodily injury per person, 50,000 dollars per accident, 25,000 dollars property damage), under Code of Alabama Section 32-7-6. For-hire and motor-carrier operations face higher minimums on top of that baseline -- federal FMCSA requirements for interstate carriers, or Alabama Public Service Commission requirements for intrastate carriers, depending on what and how the business hauls. A coverage review can confirm the right commercial-auto limit for a specific operation.
