I moved to NYC last July and left my car down in Maryland for the time being, until I sorted out garage, insurance issues. I want to insure it as a part time vehicle (sometimes referred to as weekend usage), however, I found that most insurance companies require you to be have another registered car for daily driving purposes. Problem is I don't have another car cause I take the Subway to get to work, as alot of you NYCers do.

My questions is, have any of you from NYC been able to get part time insurance while in a situation similar to mine?

Many thanks!

I'm not in nyc, but when I went to insure my car on LI, I simply put the car as "pleasure use" only, since at the time I was not commuting anywhere... premium was slightly lower than a car used for commuting...

if i were you i'd keep the insurance down in MD.

im in the same predicament, i moved up from md and want to register my car in NY....what kind of quotes are you getting right now on what car? Is your driving record good? I want get rid of my MD plates...i would feel better with NY plates.
