CarInsurance.com now offers this in most states. Non-owners insurance is meant to give coverage to a motorist liability protection for when they are at fault in an accident but do not own a vehicle. Non-owners policies can typically include Liability, Medical Payments, and Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist coverages.
Non owner policies generally do not include Comprehensive, Collision, Towing Reimbursement, or Rental Reimbursement coverage. A non-owner's policy of a driver would normally be secondary to the insurance put on the vehicle by the owner. This means the car owner of the vehicle you are borrowing would be primary and your non owner's policy would only be used if their limits were exceeded and your insurance was needed as secondary or excess insurance.
If you do not own a car nor is there a vehicle owned by anyone in your household that you could use to obtain insurance on and want to get a non-owners policy, you first will need to find an auto insurance carrier that offers this type of policy. Then you will need to meet the underwriting criteria of that insurance provider.
[Let CarInsurance.com help you find affordable auto insurance now.] Since insurance companies' guidelines and underwriting criteria can differ, you will need to find out what the qualifications are for obtaining a non-owners policy from the insurer that offers you this type of coverage. Usually the criteria would at least include not owning a vehicle and having a valid driver's license.

Once you find an insurance company in your area that offers non-owner policies than you will need to apply for insurance just as you would with an owners policy.

A non-owner auto liability policy will generally cost somewhere between $200 and $300 a year, it will depend upon the rating guidelines of the insurance company in which you obtain a policy from.
Rating factors such as your driving record will be looked at. This type of policy is cheaper than an owner's policy since you do not have a specific motor vehicle to cover. Also you are not as much of a risk as a car owner to an insurance carrier since you will not normally drive as much as a person who has their own vehicle and drives on a daily basis. |
