Driving in North Dakota comes with its own set of risks-icy highways on I-94, rural roads where deer crossings are common, and hailstorms that can leave vehicles badly damaged. At Bowerman Insurance Agency, we provide auto insurance in Steele, ND and Bismarck that keeps you protected on every trip. As an independent insurance agency, we shop multiple carriers to find the right balance of coverage and cost for your needs.
ATV & UTV Insurance in North Dakota
When it comes to off-road adventures, two types of vehicles are used the most, ATVs (All-Terrain Vehicles) and UTVs (Utility Terrain Vehicles).
An ATV, or All-Terrain Vehicle, is a type of off-road vehicle designed for one rider, while the UTV are larger and can carry more passengers and cargo. UTV’s are also known as a side-by-side.
The biggest differences between the ATV and UTV lie in their design, use, and safety features. While an ATV is designed for one rider and is controlled using handlebars, a UTV is designed to carry more passengers and is operated using a steering wheel.
Protection for Trails, Fields, and Hunting Trips
From side-by-sides on ranch roads to four-wheelers on public trails, accidents can happen anywhere. Bowerman Insurance Agency helps riders choose the policy coverage that fits how and where you ride.
Quads, Side-By-Sides, and Dirt Bikes
We cover ATVs, UTVs (Ranger, RZR, Pioneer),
trail and dirt bikes, dune buggies, and more. If you trailer to Jamestown trails or ride near Lake Sakakawea, we'll align coverage with your machine and accessories.


Bicycles and Motorcycle
Dirt Bikes, Mountain Bikes, E-Bikes, 3 Wheel Bikes (to name a few)
Whether your going off-road riding with a dirt bike, off-road cycling with a mountain bike or driving a motorcycle, we can help you with the coverage you need for the bike you own and where you go.
There are also E-Bikes out there, short for an electric bike, and plus 3 wheel bicycle or tricycle we can help you find the policy you need.
Liability, Damage, Theft, and Accessories
Liability is for injuries or property damage you cause. Collision is for rollovers and impacts. Comprehensive is for theft, fire, vandalism, and storage risks. There is Optional Coverage for medical payments and guest passenger liability.

Match Coverage to Where You Ride
Some policies provide limited on-premises liability, but once you leave the property or ride public trails, a separate policy is often the smart move. Bowerman Insurance Agency will clarify gaps and make sure your off-road coverage follows the way you actually ride.
