Reading the insurance rows. BI&PD stands for 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, generally the BMC-84, is the proof-of-financial-responsibility filing. A carrier can legally be required to maintain 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.
