auto coverage symbols
Arabic numerals (1–9 and 19 for business auto, 21–31 for garage,
41–50 and 59 for truckers, and 61–71 and 79 for motor carrier) used
to denote to what category of autos a commercial auto policy's various
coverages will apply. Symbols 10 (business auto), 32 (garage), 51
and 52 (truckers), and 72 and 73 (motor carrier) are custom symbols,
available through the use of the covered autos designation symbol
endorsement (CA 99 54), which allows the insurer and named insured
to agree to some modified wording that is a better fit in defining
the term "covered autos" for the policy in question.
Covered auto symbols, which are crucial in defining the policy's scope
of coverage, appear in the declarations page of the auto policy
next to each coverage purchased in the policy (e.g., liability,
personal injury protection (PIP), auto medical payments, and uninsured
and underinsured motorists (UM/UIM)). The symbols
reflect the named insured's selection as to what types of vehicles
are insured for that coverage (e.g., owned autos, hired autos,
nonowned autos).
