There are several insurance coverage issues when you drive a vehicle that you do not own especially when traveling. Here are some examples: 1. Even if you decide that your predominate means of transportation for traveling will be by either airplane, train, or bus, when you finally reach your destination you will probably want to rent a car. 2. You may know somebody who will let you drive their car temporarily while you are visiting. 3. You may want to drive to your vacation destination. You have a perfectly good drivable insured vehicle, but you may still decide to rent a car before you leave home so you do not put any additional wear and tear on your own vehicle.
