Commercial Auto Insurance in Michigan: Local Factors to Know

The Michigan Department of Insurance and Financial Services (DIFS) licenses the insurers and agents that sell commercial auto insurance in Michigan. If you have a question about a claim or a company, DIFS's consumer services team can help, and you can confirm any agent's license on the Michigan Department of Insurance and Financial Services website.

Local risks that shape commercial auto insurance in Michigan

Michigan winters bring heavy snow, ice dams and frozen pipes, summer storms can overwhelm sewers and flood basements, and Great Lakes shoreline erosion threatens lakefront property. Michigan businesses deal with winter driving, freight moving along I-75, I-94 and I-96, and manufacturing and auto-supply exposures across the state. Michigan is a no-fault state for personal vehicles, and commercial vehicles usually need higher limits.

Michigan tips before you buy commercial auto insurance

  • List every driver and check motor vehicle records before adding them.
  • Ask about hired and non-owned auto coverage for employees who drive their own cars.
  • Check that your agent holds a current Michigan license with DIFS.
