How much does non-owner car insurance cost in Georgia?
Non-owner insurance is usually less expensive than full coverage auto insurance—insurance companies view non-owner policyholders as less of a risk because they have minimal access to a vehicle.
On average in the United States, it costs drivers with clean driving records and good credit scores $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 property damage. In Georgia, full coverage car insurance costs $1,555.
Meanwhile, non-owner car insurance is $353 a year on average in the U.S. and $373 in Georgia.
But actual rates are based on where in Georgia you live, your age and driving history and other points.
