A commercial insurance agent receives a request for commercial automobile insurance from a client who...

The correct answer is B. Accept the risk, as the agent's insurer writes the business . Transporting radioactive materials is a serious commercial automobile exposure because it involves hazardous cargo, regulatory compliance, public safety concerns, and potentially severe loss consequences. However, a hazardous operation is not automatically unacceptable if the insurer has an appetite for that class and the underwriting information supports the risk. The Autoplus report shows that the client frequently changes insurers, but there is no lapse in insurance and the claims history is minor. Frequent insurer changes may require questioning, but it is not by itself a reason to decline the account. The stronger underwriting factors are continuity of insurance, claims experience, type of cargo, driver controls, safety procedures, filings, routes, and regulatory compliance. Option A is too broad because profitability cannot be assumed from the facts. Option C is technically poor because removing a deductible does not improve the loss ratio; it usually increases insurer exposure. Option D is not the best answer because the question focuses on the Autoplus report and the risk’s acceptability, not a fatal missing MVR.
