Can I get a deduction for a business vehicle that was totaled in a traffic accident

If it is a business vehicle that is solely owned by the business, you may be able to deduct the value less depreciation less any insurance that you recover.

If it is a private vehicle that you have written business miles of of, No, there is no business deduction for the loss.
