Can a minor be named on a car title as owner?

Yes. However, the minor is subject to the actions of the ward(s) to which the minor is assigned unless emancipated. ( the adult ward can sell the car, or transfer title prior to the minors 18th birthdate without the approval nor signature of the minor ). A better way to transfer the vehicle to a minor would be to title it to an irrevocable trust assigning the minor as benefactor upon reaching the age of majority ( 18).

The insurance company is not liable for paying damages. The minor was knowingly breaking the law by driving w/o a license. The parent of the child will be held liable for damages. As will the person/owner of the vehicle if they knew the minor was not a legally licensed driver. If you let an un liscensed/uninsured minor driver your vehicle, your asking for it. If you werent the parent of the minor, they could sue you as well for neglect.

Can you insure your car if you are a minor?

Most companies will not allow a minor to purchase an auto policy because they are not a legal adult and an insurance application and policy together make up a legally binding contract. This is also why a vehicle should not be listed as the titled owner of a vehicle. They cannot legally sign documents to purchase or sale a vehicle.
