How to read the insurance lines. BI&PD means bodily injury and property damage liability, the coverage a carrier must carry to operate in the United States. Cargo insurance covers the freight itself, and the surety bond, usually a BMC-84, is the proof-of-financial-responsibility filing. A carrier may be obliged to carry a policy that is not yet on file, so treat any required-but-not-on-file line as a reason to ask for the certificate before you dispatch.
