Which statement comparing the ISO Personal Auto Policy (PAP) and the Business Auto Coverage Form (BACF) is MOST accurate?
Explanation
The Personal Auto Policy is designed for individuals and families who own private passenger autos and excludes most regular business use beyond ordinary commuting and personal errands. The Business Auto Coverage Form is for commercial accounts and uses the symbol system (1-9) to describe which classes of autos are covered for which coverages — owned, hired, non-owned, specifically described, etc. A BACF does not replace a CGL; it covers only auto-related liability.
