How to read the insurance lines. BI&PD is bodily injury and property damage liability, the coverage a carrier must carry to operate in the United States. Cargo insurance applies to the freight being carried, and the surety bond, typically the BMC-84, is the proof-of-financial-responsibility record. A carrier can legally be required to carry a policy that is not yet on file, so take any required-but-not-on-file line as grounds to request the certificate before you dispatch.
