Auto InsuranceQuestion 16 of 215
A florist regularly rents box trucks during the holiday rush to make deliveries. Which Business Auto symbol most accurately picks up coverage on those rented trucks?
a.Symbol 2 — Owned autos only
b.Symbol 7 — Specifically described autos
c.Symbol 8 — Hired autos only
d.Symbol 9 — Non-owned autos only
Explanation
Symbol 8 means hired autos only — vehicles the named insured leases, hires, rents, or borrows (other than from employees, partners, or members of their households). Renting box trucks from a commercial rental agency is the classic hired-auto exposure. Symbol 2 wouldn't apply because the trucks are not owned; Symbol 9 wouldn't apply because the trucks are not employee-owned/non-owned in that sense.
