Also, leading companies are developing various products and solutions for LDVs such as ride sharing and autonomous vehicles. For instance, in March 2018, Allstate partnered with Uber to protect drivers and passengers by offering commercial auto coverage. The partnership enabled Allstate to expand its leadership in personal transportation solutions into the commercial insurance market.
