General Rules on Insuring Someone Else’s Car
There is a general rule with car insurance companies that you are not allowed to insure any property that belongs to someone else in your name.
However, if you drive someone else’s car from time to time then you might be eligible to seek a non-owners insurance policy.
A non-owners insurance policy generally does not include comprehensive coverage, monetary protection against collision or reimbursement for towing and rental charges.
If somebody else’s car is in your custody for some reason then you are able to take out insurance for this car.
To get a non owners insurance policy you will need to:
- Make sure that the vehicle you are insuring is registered under the name of the owner.
- You should go online and read the insurance policies of various companies.
- List all the companies that offer non-owners insurance and call these companies to learn about your options.
- You should explain to the agent that you wish to use the car owned by a friend, relative or rental agency. You need to make it clear that you want to obtain separate insurance coverage for the vehicle.
- Once you have found a suitable quote, all you need to do is follow the procedures.
