Connecticut Truck Insurance

Connecticut carriers run short, dense routes between New York and Boston with plenty of traffic and tight deliveries. Liability limits and driver history weigh heavily here.

Connecticut insurance requirements

Interstate for-hire carriers need a USDOT number, MC authority and a federal liability filing (BMC-91X), with a $750,000 minimum for general freight. Most brokers and shippers ask for $1,000,000 liability and $100,000 cargo. Intrastate rules vary, so confirm current requirements with the FMCSA and Connecticut's transportation department.
