How much does non-owner auto insurance cost in Idaho?

Non-owner insurance is usually cheaper than full coverage auto insurance—insurance companies view non-owner policyholders as less of a risk because they have limited access to a car.

On average in the U.S., it costs a driver with a clean driving record and good credit score $1,682 annually for a 100/300/100 full coverage insurance policy—$100,000 for injuries you cause in an accident, up to $300,000 per accident, and $100,000 for any damages to property. Full coverage car insurance is $1,052 in Idaho.

Meanwhile, non-owner car insurance is $353 a year on average in the United States and $190 in Idaho.

But actual rates are based on where in Idaho you live, your age and driving history and other points.
