Expert's Insight "Consumers may think it's only important to maintain insurance when they own a vehicle, without realizing that gaps in insurance coverage might disqualify them from the benefit of certain discounts. Some individuals will cancel their auto policy when they're between vehicles or simply don't have regular access to a vehicle. Demonstrating a history of continuous insurance coverage can not only help you qualify for future discounts but can also provide you protection and peace of mind in the event you are involved in an accident while driving, or even riding in, someone else's car. A non-owner policy is an inexpensive way to accomplish both," says Rick Kautzer, director of product management at Dairyland Insurance.
