Non-owner car insurance is a policy for people who don’t own a car but often borrow or rent a vehicle. It provides liability coverage for bodily injury and property damage in case you get in an accident while driving a car owned by someone else.

“Non-owner policies provide the minimum coverage required by the state, as well as some optional add-ons, but there are specific requirements by the insurance carriers to provide this coverage in lieu of a traditional auto insurance policy,” says Patti Clement, senior vice president of private client services at HUB International, a leading personal insurance brokerage.

How much does non-owner car insurance cost in Mississippi?

Insurance companies consider non-owner policyholders as less risky due to their limited access to a vehicle, and therefore, it’s usually cheaper to buy non-owner insurance than full coverage auto insurance.

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 property damage. In Mississippi, full coverage car insurance costs $1,498.

On the other hand, non-owner car insurance costs $353 a year on average in the United States and $302 in Mississippi.

But various factors affect individual rates, such as where in Mississippi you live, your age and driving history and other factors.

How to get non-owner car insurance in Mississippi

To get a non-owner policy, you need your driver’s license number and a credit or debit card.

To purchase a policy, follow these steps:

  1. Contact an auto insurance agent about the coverage
  2. Supply your basic driving history

  4. Choose the policy that best meets your needs
  5. Put down a payment to begin coverage

In many cases, you’ll get proof of insurance almost immediately.

For a non-owner insurance policy, you’ll need to call your insurer rather than go online for a quote.
