Scottsdale Taxi
Nuts & Bolts: London American General Agency (LAGA) has launched an excess and surplus auto liability taxi program in California.

LAGA will write accounts for fleets of five or more cabs. Accounts usually have a SIR instead of a deductible. The program is open to agents and brokers.
Dollars: The program has a combined single limit of $350,000. There is no minimum premium, and premiums depend in part on location and loss ratio. Generally, premiums are $3,500 to $7,000 per unit.
Carrier: Risks for the program are approved by the federal risk purchasing group Radio Dispatched Public Livery Association.
