Overview
Current federal regulations require for-hire motor carriers that transport property or passengers and operate motor vehicles in interstate or international commerce to maintain certain minimum levels of financial responsibility for public liability.
The MCS-90 endorsement is a form added to many truckers' and motor carriers' policies to ensure that the insured motor carrier is in compliance with these federally mandated requirements.
