Prime insurance?

What do you need to know?

 

I went through their training program, am currently a solo driver with them. Glad I chose them, I make 47cpm, average between 2500-3000 miles a week (some more, some less), been on my own about 9 months. No complaints here.

 

Is Prime insurance the same as Prime trucking company? I've got Prime insurance as a new driver, and it's a terrible deal for us, but the only option we had on short notice. They wanted 5k deposit on top of 25% down payment on like $30,000 a year. After the year, we get the 5k back. So roughly 13k up front and 3k every month for 9 months or something. We do have higher than minimum coverage, but there is no doubt in my mind we're being gouged. I can't tell you how well they handle claims, nor do I intend to find out.

 

Those 2 companies are not related in any way what so ever.

 

How is prime inc insurance???

 

Prime Insurance is what we consider a high risk company. They write insurance for high risk operators that can't get insurance anyplace else because of their out of service issues, accidents or MVR. I would suggest you try getting a quote with Progressive or National indemnity first. They are also expensive but not usually that bad unless you really are a high risk.

New ventures are considered high risk for the first two years of their authority. Lancer is a good option if you are clean and have newer equipment.
