Which Symbol is used to customize coverage on fairly new vehicles?

• A. Symbol 10
• B. Symbol 2
• C. Symbol 7
• D. Symbol 9

Answer: (A)

In a commercial auto policy, symbols show which vehicles are covered and how coverage applies. When you need coverage that can adapt to recently purchased or fairly new vehicles, you use the symbol designed for newly acquired autos. This symbol is meant to automatically extend coverage to autos you acquire during the policy period, without having to immediately list them on the declarations. That means liability and, where applicable, physical damage coverage can apply to the new vehicle while you finalize details or schedule it on the policy, giving you flexibility and avoiding gaps right after a purchase.

This approach is different from symbols that only cover listed owned autos, hired or borrowed autos, or autos that are specifically described. Those options don’t provide the same automatic, ongoing inclusion for new additions, which is why the symbol for newly acquired autos is the best fit when your goal is to customize coverage on fairly new vehicles. For instance, buying a new vehicle would be covered under this symbol without an immediate endorsement, helping keep your coverage seamless during the transition.
