Non-Owner Car Insurance in Tennessee

Numbers refreshed

Liability protection for Tennessee drivers who don't own a car.

  • Average owner liability each month: $50.
  • Minimum liability limits: 25/50/25.
  • 34th most expensive of 51 states (1st = highest).

Who non-owner insurance is for

  • Often, you drive borrowed or rented cars without owning one.
  • Even without a car to insure, you're asked by Tennessee for an SR-22 filing.
  • You'd like to avoid breaks in coverage between cars, which can increase the price you pay next time.

What the policy covers

A non-owner policy provides liability coverage only. The Tennessee minimum of 25/50/25 is what it must meet.

If you cause a crash in a borrowed car, it pays other people. This policy won't repair the car you drive. Usually, the owner's policy pays first.

Policy costs

No official average exists for non-owner policies. For car owners in Tennessee, the average liability cost is $599 a year. Non-owner policies usually cost less because you don't have a car in your driveway every day.
