This product typically protects the owner of the vehicle in third-party liability claims.
Contingent liability arises when a business owner is held liable for the bodily injury, property damage or personal injury, which has been directly caused by another party the business owner happens to be in contractual relations - in this case, it would be the vehicle.
This offers a variety of protections, and one is an indirect liability.
This coverage protects you if a customer or client is injured on your property. It covers injuries and legal bills up to your policy limits and protects you if the injury is caused by the actions or inaction (didn’t put up that wet floor sign) of your employees or even contractors working for your business.
This covers damage you may do to a client’s property. If you or one of your employees spills a cup of coffee on a client’s server, which not only damages the server but also causes data loss, this portion of your general liability policy will cover the damages.
This covers issues such as slander and libel. If one of your employees is overheard making false and slanderous statements about one of your clients and the client sues, the personal injury section of the policy will pay for the damages.
This is also called professional liability coverage and it protects you from mistakes or negligence that results in financial loss for your client.
