Bus Insurance For Bus Companies and Bus Drivers
If you’re an insurance producer looking to write more business and provide insurance solutions to your clients, then Prime Insurance Company is the partner for you. As a leading excess and surplus lines insurance company, Prime can write bus insurance with confidence. We can also write bus driver insurance, bus insurance for personal use, commercial bus insurance, and more!
We can help your clients even if they’ve been canceled or denied insurance in the past or have a claims history. In most states, we can cover buses, bus companies, bus services, and bus drivers. Whether your client started a new business or is a new driver, or has been in the industry for 20+ years, we can write a customized insurance policy to fit their needs.
Prime has over 40 years of experience, making us one of the best bus insurance providers out there. Many bus insurance companies are turning away individuals and businesses that are deemed too risky, or, they could be leaving gaps/exclusions in policies that leave the policyholder exposed. Prime takes a more hands-on approach to learn about you, your client, and their needs so we can write a policy that ensures maximum protection.

Why Choose Prime As Your Insurance Partner?
There are many reasons why you should choose Prime as your insurance partner but here are some highlights:
Partnership Approach
At Prime, we build trusted relationships and want all parties to be involved. We arrange a phone call with every potential insured to provide fast, flexible underwriting for every client. From our underwriters to our legal team, the insured, and the producers — at Prime, everyone is considered a partner and our processes are designed for the mutual benefit of all parties involved.
“A” Rated Carrier With 40+ Years of Experience
The strength and stability of Prime have led us to over 40 years of experience in the insurance industry. Commercial auto and bus insurance are our expertise!
In-House Teams
We have it all – underwriting, legal, risk management, policy services, etc. You will have direct access to our staff and services, ready to assist you! We even have an in-house claims hotline if an incident or claim occurs, available 24/7.
Extraordinary Claims Results
We pride ourselves on our ability to handle claims in-house and effectively. Prime’s team of attorneys and adjusters are here to assist you every step of the way. Unlike most insurance companies, Prime fights frivolous lawsuits. We will be by your side every step of the way!
Bus Insurance Providers and Prime Insurance
Looking for the best bus insurance provider? Prime Insurance Company should be at the top of your list. Our partnership approach requires that we speak with the producer and the insured so we can better understand everyone’s needs in order to provide the right coverage, the right service, and most importantly, a healthy relationship.
Accidents do happen. “On average, there are nearly 60,000 bus accidents each year in the United States. While most of these collisions result in property damage only, hundreds of people are killed and thousands more are injured. Researchers estimate that as many as 14,000 injuries occur in these crashes.” It’d be wise to go with a trusted bus insurance provider such as Prime to handle claims promptly and professionally with exceptional results!
A lot of people go with cheaper markets that will cost them and their insured more in the long run! Over the past years, many of the cheaper markets have run into trouble, gone broke, or stopped writing. As a result, Prime is writing more business and we remain committed to doing it right! Insureds need a more efficient bus insurance company and a better partner that’s willing to fight frivolous lawsuits practiced by legal professionals nationwide.
In short, Prime won’t compete with your other markets from a premium standpoint, but we will help you write the business you are turning away today. Plus, we’ll be by your side when a claim or lawsuit is filed against you.
