    You can probmvide plates, in your Companies name, whether or not you charge him back doesn’t matter. Public Liability coverage and cargo will need to be in your company’s name, His isn’t any good ic operating under your authority. Plates don’t matter, Per lease agreement

    I plan on being an owner non op. and hire a truck driver and run under another’s authority.
    From the comments I see I need my EIN and Bobtail insurance. I’m getting mixed answers about the DOT #. But it’s best to look at the contract they present, it should specify in it. Am I correct?
     
    Rideandrepair Thanks this.

    You shouldn’t need a DOT#. The Carrier you lease to, is the responsible party. You can only haul under their Authority. Being under Contract with them, puts you under their DOT#

    You already asked this question once. Look at Questions From New Drivers and you'll find it.

    Did you ever get your question answered? I also purchased a truck and was leasing with this company but will like more information on how I can get insured under someone else authority... I believe that will have a impact on my insurance rate..
