Insurance carriers differ on their guidelines for non-owners insurance so some providers might have age restrictions while other insurers will not. You need to comparison shop to seek the insurance company that is right for your needs.
If you are a teen and living at home with your parents or relatives usually it is easier and more affordable to have you place onto their current auto insurance policy. If that is not possible and if you do not own a car but are licensed and occasionally operate a vehicle, non owners is a type of policy that might be best for you. It is important that you inquire when you shop for this car insurance, if you will be covered for vehicles owned by members of the same household since some insurance carriers do not permit this.
Auto Insurance SR22
Reader’s Question:
Can you please explain to me: I thought motor vehicle insurance follows the vehicle. Why do you need to purchase SR22 if you no longer own your car?

Not all auto insurance follows the vehicle.
Liability coverage doesn’t always follow the vehicle, but rather the driver. It can be very complicated to determine which policy should be used primary, secondary or even tertiary in these kind of situations. An SR22 is a certificate which must be filed by the insurance carrier stating that auto liability insurance is in effect for a particular motorist. It is required typically when insurance is given to a person who was in an accident or was convicted of a traffic violation and was unable to show financial responsibility.
Liability insurance is required to pay for property or bodily injury damages to others. Liability can be caused by an person while they are in a motor vehicle or in ANY automobile.

Reader’s Question:
If I don’t have auto insurance at this time because I do not own a vehicle, when I purchase a vehicle can I get insurance in Florida?

Yes, if you have a valid driver’s license you should be able to buy insurance for a vehicle when you do purchase a new or used car.
If you would like to begin an insurance policy before owning a vehicle, to get a car insurance history started for yourself and cover you when operating other people’s vehicles until you get your own, then you can obtain a non-owner’s policy now. There is no reason to buy a non-owners policy unless you have a specific need to be covered when you don’t own a vehicle. Typically, the reason for this is because you need to satisfy state requirements or you borrow and/or rent other cars often.
Non-owners insurance is coverage to provide a motorist liability protection for when they are at fault in an accident but do not own a car. Non-owners policies can typically include liability, uninsured/underinsured motorist coverages and medical payments,.
