typcially all insurance stays with the car...meaning whomever is driving your vehicle (with your permission, and subject to any exclusions your policy may have)....is insured under the policy if they have an at fault accident, it affects THAT VEHICLE policy regardless of who is driving...so the ramifications are your son has an accident that is his fault...your policy is subject to increase, non renewal etc.
