Frequently Asked Questions

Can I get non-owner SR-22 if I occasionally drive someone else's car?
Yes. Non-owner SR-22 is designed exactly for this situation. It provides liability coverage when you drive vehicles you don't own, while meeting California's SR-22 requirement for license reinstatement.
What if I buy a car while I have a non-owner SR-22?
You would need to switch to an owner SR-22 policy that covers your new vehicle. Contact Sanctuary Insurance Services and we can help you make the transition with no gap in coverage — which is critical to avoid a license suspension.
Does non-owner SR-22 cover rental cars in California?
Non-owner SR-22 provides liability coverage when driving rental cars, but it does not cover physical damage to the rental vehicle itself. You would need to purchase the rental company's collision damage waiver separately for that coverage.
How long do I need non-owner SR-22 in California?
California requires SR-22 coverage — whether owner or non-owner — for a minimum of 3 years from the date your driving privilege is reinstated. Maintaining continuous coverage throughout this period is essential.
