What Non-Owner Car Insurance in Missouri Can Cover

A non-owner policy is designed for drivers who do not own a car. Here is how it usually works.

Liability Coverage

A non-owner policy can help pay for injuries and property damage you cause to others while driving a car you do not own. It usually applies after the car owner's insurance.

Possible Added Coverages

Some insurers offer uninsured motorist or medical coverage on a non-owner policy. Availability depends on the carrier.

What It Does Not Cover

A non-owner policy usually does not pay for damage to the car you are driving or for your own injuries beyond any added coverages.

Who It Is Not For

It is generally not for cars you own or have regular use of, such as a household vehicle.

Non-Owner Coverage Considerations in Missouri
