Trailer(Full Trailer) VS Semi-Trailer
The difference between a trailer or full trailer, and a semi trailer is where the weight of the vehicle rests.
Full trailers have front axles that bare some of the weight of the trailer, whereas, semi trailers do not have a front axle and instead rest on the tail end of the tractor to support the front of the trailer.
Specified Trailer VS Non-Owned Trailer
A specified or scheduled trailer is any trailer that is specifically listed on an insurance policy.
A non-owned trailer is a trailer that is not owned by the operator of the power unit and is covered only while attached to a covered power unit.
