{
  "id": "MLC-T-INS-003437",
  "term": "Unladen liability",
  "field": "Insurance and risk management",
  "definition": "Liability coverage for a truck, such as an owner-operator's tractor, while it runs without a load and not under dispatch for the motor carrier, for example when bobtailing or pulling an empty trailer. A motor carrier can require the owner-operator to carry it, since the carrier's own policy covers the truck only while hauling for the carrier. It is closely related to bobtail and non-trucking liability coverage.",
