No you can sue the parents of the minoe, but not the minor. The parents will be held liable & depending on how much is being sought, if the insurance won't cover it, they could potentially lose anything of value that they own, including their home.

The claims department will be concerned only with the status of the policy at the moment of the accident. Other than that, it will not come into play. Any delay would be very minor (as long as it takes someone in the coverage dpt to determine that there was coverage on the date of loss). However, if the insurance was lapsed on the day of the accident, this will, of course, cause there to be no coverage for the accident.
