What Does a Non Owner SR22 Insurance Policy Cover?
Q: Should I get into a car accident, what insurance will cover the damages? My non owner SR22 insurance, or the insurance belonging to the owner of the car?
A: Non owner SR22 insurance is a special exception in the car insurance world, but the normal rules still apply. And those rules are that car insurance is attached to the car most of the time, and not to the driver, so if you drive a friend’s car and get into a car accident, then you will be covered by the insurance policy that car is named on so long as you had reason to believe the policy owner would allow you to drive the car.
Even if you only drive insured cars, you will stil need your non owner SR22 insurance coverage, although you may never use it. It’s there as back up, as proof of your responsibility. And, if your friend’s own car insurance coverage runs out in a bad crash, your own will kick in and extend the limits.
