Hunter Nelson explains why motor carriers should bundle an occupational accident policy with their master policy. It saves money, expands coverage, and protects drivers' families if someone gets injured, preventing loss of the operator.
Now, why would I bring up an accident policy for the motor carrier to think about? When you guys are doing this, you guys can also throw in the master policy. You guys get this big bundle. You're saving them money, providing more coverage, provide some reassurance for the family. And so the wives and the mothers are going to step in here and help make the decision with the— well, typically it's the father who's the trucker. Now, it could be vice versa as well. But they're going to want to make sure that their family is protected. And so having an occupational accident policy provides more coverage, make sure their family is good to go. And so that way, if they— he does get into an accident, gets hurt, you guys don't lose your own operator. Their family's protected. These guys aren't struggling for money every day, and you guys are just going to have a more consistent, better operation, caring, caring about the drivers that you guys have going for you. And so that's one option there.
