Trucks that haul manufactured homes across highways are more difficult to insure than many other types of trucks for the obvious reason: they carry oversized cargo, transporting the homes from the manufacturer to the intended locations – often over a radius that is more than 200 miles in distance.

Safety protocol demands ‘escort vehicles’ precede these trucks and follow behind them. These vehicles, also referred to as ‘chase’ vehicles, are equipped with signs that warn other motorists about necessary precautions when approaching the truck with over-sized cargo.

Among other exposures, dangerous driving conditions include steep inclines, curves, high winds, rain and other types of inclement weather, risking load shifts or upsets.
