Who qualifies for a Travelers non-owner policy?

  • When your household has no car belonging to you or a housemate, and you frequently drive someone else's, rented, or shared vehicle, or an SR-22 is required by your state to drive again, this policy fits.
  • Skip this policy if you own a car (your regular policy protects you) or if you share a home with the owner of the vehicle you drive (request to be named on that owner's policy instead).

Not sure it fits? Answer three quick questions.

Can you get an SR-22 when you buy non-owner insurance through Travelers?

Your insurer submits a form called an SR-22 to the state, proving you hold at least the minimum required coverage. Most drivers who have no car get one by buying a non-owner policy. The call you make before buying confirms whether Travelers files the form with your state for a non-owner policy, and how quickly.

How an SR-22 works and how long you carry it.
