Kevin Ryan
Kevin Ryan is the editor of Non-Owner Car Insurance Quotes. He spent twelve years as an independent property and casualty agent in Wisconsin, where non-owner policies—for SR-22 filers, city residents without cars and people between vehicles—were a steady and misunderstood part of the book.
He started this site in 2023 to answer the questions he was asked most. He no longer holds an active licence and does not sell insurance. He writes the coverage, rental and car-sharing guides and reviews every page quarterly.
