If you’re only going to go for a Third-Party Commercial Insurance for your commercial vehicle, then own damages and losses won’t be covered.
If during a claim, the driver-owner is found to be driving the insured vehicle without a valid driver’s license or under the influence of alcohol then the claim can’t be approved.
