When should you consider buying non-owner car insurance in Oklahoma City?

If you don’t own a car, you might assume you don’t need car insurance. However, there are still reasons to consider getting an auto insurance policy.

For one, if you’re in an at-fault state – and most states are at-fault, or tort, states – responsibility for the accident is determined and the responsible driver or their insurance company will need to pay for the damages caused by the accident, including medical issues. This might apply if you often borrow a car from friends or family, or you regularly rent vehicles.

“This type of policy is also beneficial for those who need to maintain continuous auto insurance coverage to avoid gaps that can result in higher premiums in the future,” says Golnoush Goharzad, a personal injury attorney near Los Angeles, California.

For example, the average cost of non-owner insurance is just $422 in Los Angeles, or $35 per month. While the cost may vary, the cost of damage from an accident can easily be higher than the annual premium.

If you drive regularly in the city, it’s a relatively low cost to pay given that it will protect you in the event of an accident.

What does non-owner auto insurance cover?

Non-owner auto insurance provides coverage when you are driving a vehicle you don’t own.

“If someone with non-owner auto insurance is involved in an accident while driving a rental car or a friend’s car, the policy typically covers liability for damages and injuries to others,” Goharzad says.

An important caveat is these policies don’t cover damage to the car you are driving. “That would be covered under the car owner’s policy or possibly through optional insurance purchased from the rental agency,” Goharzad says.

Goharzad added that non-owner auto insurance policies may provide extra coverage.

“Non-owner policies may also provide supplementary liability over and above what the car owner’s policy covers, filling in gaps if the primary policy’s limits are exhausted.”

Getting non-owner car insurance is similar to buying any other kind of auto policy but may have unique requirements.

For example, Goharzad says, “to qualify for a non-owner car insurance policy in California, individuals typically must have a valid driver’s license and not own a vehicle. They also should not have regular access to a household vehicle,” Goharzad says. Insurers may have additional requirements, Goharzad adds.
