It will depend on what insurance company your are insured with. Most companies do not allow this. However, at the company that I previously worked for they did allow you to insure a vehicle even if you were not the titled owner.

You had to add an "Owned By Endorsement" to the policy. In which they would get all of the information about the owner of the vehicle as well as your information. In some cases, they would even rate for the owner along with you if the owner isn't rated on another insurance policy.

If there was a loss, the owner would be paid because they own the vehicle and are the ones with the insurable interest, not you.

Your basically just paying for the insurance on it to drive it, but would not be compensated if a loss were to occur.

Hope that helps!

What is the proper way for a resident of Oklahoma to title register insure a new car that was bought in Oklahoma yet the primary driver will live in Nevada?

If the owner of the vehicle will be living in Nevada, you'll want to reregister the vehicle in Nevada. Contact your auto insurance to get the insurance switched to the state of Nevada, and then call the DMV there for additional information. If the owner of the vehicle will be living in Oklahoma but the primary driver will be living in Nevada then the registration and the insurance will need to be for the state of Oklahoma regardless; just notify the insurance of the garaging address being outside of the state and again, speak to the DMV.
