What is the coverage area for the insurance?

Modified on Tue, Feb 11 at 9:04 PM

The coverage area for your commercial auto insurance policy depends on the specific terms set by your provider. However, if you are driving for OMNI’s TCP-C scheduled premium transportation service, your insurance should cover the entire state of California to comply with CPUC (California Public Utilities Commission) regulations.

Key Coverage Area Considerations:

Statewide Coverage (California)

  • Your TCP-C commercial insurance policy should provide coverage for all trips within California where OMNI operates.
  • If you plan to drive in multiple counties or cities, ensure your policy does not have regional limitations.

City-Specific Coverage

  • Some insurers may have restrictions based on city or county regulations.
  • OMNI currently operates in San Francisco Bay Area and Sacramento with plans for statewide expansion, so your policy should allow you to accept trips anywhere in these areas.

Out-of-State Trips (If Applicable)

  • If you intend to drive across state lines (e.g., from California to Nevada), you may need an interstate policy endorsement.
  • Check with your provider to confirm whether out-of-state coverage is available or required.

Airport Pickups & Drop-offs

  • If you provide transportation to and from major airports (e.g., SFO, LAX, SJC), confirm that your policy includes airport commercial coverage.
  • Some insurers may require additional endorsements for airport operations.

⚠️ Why It’s Important to Verify Your Coverage Area

  • Operating outside your insurance’s coverage area may leave you unprotected in case of an accident.
  • Fines or legal issues could arise if you operate commercially in a restricted area.
  • Some local jurisdictions require additional permits (e.g., airport permits, city-specific TCP regulations).


What Should You Do Next?

? Contact your insurance provider and ask:
✔️ Does my policy cover all of California?
✔️ Are there any city, county, or airport restrictions?
✔️ Do I need additional endorsements for certain areas?
