If you need insurance but do not own a vehicle, a non-owner policy may fit your situation. The details matter: household cars, regular access, rentals and work vehicles can change what is available.

For the state filing requirement itself, start with our El Mirage SR-22 filing information.
It may be worth discussing if you do not own a car, do not have regular access to a household vehicle, and sometimes borrow or rent a vehicle. The insurer will ask about your address, household members, driving history and how often you drive.
Liability coverage may respond when you are legally responsible for injury or damage to another person, subject to policy terms. It generally does not pay to repair a car you own or a borrowed car you damage. Physical damage, roadside help and rental-company charges should never be assumed included.
Permissive use means you have the owner's permission to drive. Permission alone does not override a policy exclusion or make a non-owner policy suitable for a car you use regularly.
Some liability protection may apply to occasional rental or borrowed-car use, but the contract and exclusions control. Rental-car damage waivers, collision protection and other rental products are separate questions.
Vehicles supplied for work may be covered under an employer's policy or may fall outside personal coverage. Tell us if driving is part of your job and ask the employer which policy applies.
Insurers commonly restrict coverage for cars owned by, furnished to or regularly available to people in your household. Disclose those vehicles before buying a policy; do not rely on a general description to settle a specific exclusion.
Price depends on your record, location, limits, payment plan and insurer eligibility. Ask for the full premium, initial amount, fees and instalment dates. We cannot promise a particular rate.

We can discuss options by phone. The insurer determines whether it can issue the policy and submit any required proof.
Contact the insurer before driving the newly acquired vehicle. An owner policy may be necessary, and a non-owner policy may not cover a vehicle you own. Coordinate any required filing so you do not create a coverage gap.
Read the new policy documents and confirm the effective date, listed drivers, vehicle and coverage selections.

“It covers any car I borrow.” Not necessarily. Regular access, household exclusions and policy wording matter.
“It pays for damage to the borrowed car.” Non-owner policies are generally liability-focused, not physical-damage insurance for the vehicle you drive.
“I can keep it after buying a car.” You need to tell the insurer and arrange suitable owner coverage where required.
“Every rental is automatically covered.” Rental contracts and policy exclusions can leave gaps. Confirm before collecting the vehicle.
Coverage may apply when you occasionally borrow a vehicle with permission, but policy wording, exclusions and the owner's insurance matter. Confirm before driving.
Generally, non-owner coverage is designed for people who do not own or have regular access to a vehicle. Tell the insurer if you own or are buying one.
Household or regularly available vehicles are commonly excluded. Disclose every vehicle in your household so the insurer can assess eligibility.
Some liability protection may apply to occasional rentals, but damage to the rental vehicle and other rental obligations may not be covered.
Employer-owned vehicles are subject to policy terms and the employer's coverage. Do not assume a personal non-owner policy covers work use.
Household-member rules vary by insurer and jurisdiction. Provide accurate household details and ask how the proposed policy treats them.
Not necessarily. Optional medical payments or similar protections depend on the insurer and policy form.
Usually not. Non-owner policies generally focus on liability rather than physical damage to the vehicle you drive.
Regular access can make a non-owner policy unsuitable. The insurer may require you to be listed on the vehicle owner's policy.
You should contact the insurer before or immediately when acquiring a vehicle. An owner policy may be required instead.
These are not standard assumptions for non-owner liability coverage. Check the actual policy options and exclusions.
Compare the full premium, fees, payment schedule, coverage limits and exclusions rather than looking only at the initial payment.
If you are unsure whether your situation fits a non-owner policy, describe the vehicles you can access and how you use them. We will help you identify the next questions to resolve.
