The Difference Between Commercial and Private Insurance

What is the difference between Commercial Vehicle Insurance and Private Insurance? What is the difference between the two when it comes to hitting someone's car and totalling it? Is it true that companies with commercial insurance are most likely to "replace" a totalled car versus private insurance to keep from being sued.

Whether a PAP (personal auto) or BAP (commercial auto), the same rules & laws applies when resolving auto claims. If you are using your vehicle in a commercial venture, or for hire, you must have commercial insurance. There is no practical difference between commercial and private insurance policies, they both protect you financially from liability in the case of an accident. The only difference is the amount of liability carried by each. BAP's are generally much higher than PAP. So to answer your question, NO a commercial carrier will not "replace" your totaled out vehicle. Both carriers have a duty to settle claims fairly & do their best to keep their insured out of court.

I'm looking for my first form of transportation. Car or Motorcycle for my first vehicle? I have around $1,000 saved up in my bank account. I'm 17, I have a drivers license and I can't decide between a motorcycle or a car.

At 17, I'd get a car! It's tough climbing in the back seat of a motorcycle. I can tell you that with $1,000, you can't really get a car that will take you from Point A - Point A 1/2. I guess you could carry a blanket in a backpack, though. A motorcycle has a better chance of you getting into a fatal accident.
