Do you cover drivers with bad credit or a lapse in coverage?
Yes — and here is the California good news on credit: under state law (Prop 103), auto insurers cannot use your credit score to set your rate, so bad or no credit does not raise your premium here the way it does in most states. A lapse in coverage can affect price, but it does not disqualify you either. We work with carriers that write non-standard California auto insurance, and many Chula Vista drivers in this situation still end up with competitive rates compared to what single-carrier online quotes show.
