If your drivers license has been suspended due to some reason such as DUI or driving uninsured, you will be required by the state to get an SR22 if you want to reinstate your drivers license. Usually this is done by purchasing car insurance policy. If you do not own a vehicle but drive a vehicle from time to time you need to get your license back. Instead of getting an SR22 auto insurance, you will need SR22 non owner insurance if you do not have a car. Such a policy operates differently than usual. Instead of being attached to a car, it’s attached to the driver, and will cover you no matter what you drive. But, if you get into an accident in an insured vehicle, then that automobile’s insurance will kick in first, and then yours.
In Nevada. and SR22 non owner insurance for drivers without vehicle but usually borrow or rent cars, is a little different, as well, in that you can only buy liability insurance, and even that is expensive. It’s harder to save money on because fewer discounts apply, but it’s still possible.
Non-owner’s insurance Paradise, Nevada NV
Reader’s Question:
I live in Paradise, Nevada and I would like to ask if I can purchase car insurance even if I do not own a car? I would like to get the protection I need since I sometimes drive a car to the city when I need to and rent it from rental companies.

How are you doing, James?
Thanks you for asking a very legitimate question about car insurance. A non-owner’s car insurance is something that fits your insurance needs. This is often helpful for people who live in a metro area and often leads to a scenario where this coverage is needed or wanted. As most people who live in metro areas often don’t own vehicles for many reasons: cost, space, cost of insurance, etc; auto insurers have designed this type of auto insurance. This is really intended for short term protection if driving becomes occasional. It is one of the most practical options if you do not own a car.
What happened when you’re driving a car not owned by you is that the insurance on the car is primary. You would become liable for the remaining uncovered damage if more damage occurs than coverage afforded by the policy. Every time you rent a vehicle and you purchase the coverage they offer, there wouldn’t be a coverage gap in the above scenario. If you rent a vehicle quite often, the premium for the coverage can become expensive over a years time and will be very impractical. A non owner policy might be a more cost effective for you in Paradise, Nevada. This policy will cover accidents for any vehicle you’re driving and not merely accidents while driving the rental car.
I strongly suggest for you to shop around among companies and not always go for the cheapest rate, but to check for coverage too.
Nevada SR22 for non owner
Q: What is Nevada SR22 for non owner drivers?
A: Everybody who has their license suspended for some reason or another is required to have Nevada SR22 if they want to get their license back. Normally, this is done by buying an insurance policy for their car. But what if they don’t have a car? Since insurance usually follows the car, this defies the usual laws of car insurance, but there is a solution.
If you don’t own a car, but do drive from time to time, so you still want your license back, then instead of a regular Nevada SR22 policy, you can get an SR22 car insurance policy for non owner drivers. Such a policy operates differently than usual. Instead of being attached to a car, it’s attached to you, and will cover you regardless of what you drive. However, if you get into an accident in an insured car, then that car’s insurance will kick in first, and then yours.
Nevada SR22 insurance for non owner drivers is a little different, as well, in that you can only buy liability insurance, and even that is costly. It’s harder to save money on because fewer discounts apply, but it’s still possible.
