No, It will not. Unless they obtain permissive use by another person who is a named insured on the policy. It will however continue to cover any additional Named insureds for at least 30 days, after which time they will need to restructure the coverage into the new owners name by purchasinga new auto insurance policy.

How does a life insurance trust work?
A life insurance trust is used to remove the assets and death benefit of the life insurance policy out of the insured's estate for estate tax purposes. If the insured were to remain the owner of the policy, the policy procedes would be estate taxable at the time of death. This is a non-issue if your assets are less the the allowable estate tax limits.
Will the life insurance policies also be part of the probate file?
Generally, no. Life insurance proceeds are paid directly to the beneficiary of the policy, if that person is living at the time of the insured's death. If a contingent beneficiary is named, the proceeds are paid to him/her. If the policy specifies that the proceeds are to be paid to the estate of the insured, or if none of the named beneficiaries are living upon the insured's death, proceeds will be paid to the estate. In that event, they become part of the Estate. If the law of the State in which the insured died requires a probate proceeding (usually depending upon the size of the estate), the life insurance proceeds would pass through the estate.
Do siblings share life insurance payouts?
Life insurance proceeds are payable according to the beneficiary designation made by the insured and that is a part of the insurance policy. As such, the beneficiary can be any person or entity that had an insurable interest in the life of the insured at the time of the policy's inception. Concievably, that can be one or more of the siblings of the person insured. However, the insured is free to change the beneficiary(ies) at any time prior to death. If the insured designates his/her estate as the beneficiary of the policy, upon death, the proceeds are paid to the estate and distributed per the terms of the deceased's Will. If there is no Will, the proceeds, along with other assets of the estate, are distributed according to the laws of intestate successation of the state in which the insured died.

Who receives the benefits or money from a life insurance policy upon the death of the insured?
The beneficiary designated on the policy application is the recipient. Usually, a secondary ("contingent") beneficiary is also named in the event that the primary beneficiary dies before the insured. The estate of the deceased can also be the beneficiary if it is named as such or if there are no named beneficiaries or if all of them die before the insured. In that event, the insurance proceeds become a part of the estate and are distributed according to the insured's Last Will and Testament. If the insured dies without a Will, the estate, including the insurance proceeds, pass according to state law according to the laws of intestate succession.
The insured did not sign a beneficiary form. Who can claim the proceeds at the death of the insured?

How much tax will you have to pay on a 100000 dollar life insurance policy?
If you are referring to the death benefit paid if the insured dies, then no tax is due at all. This is the case if the money was left to a person as beneficiary and as long as the premiums were never deducted as any type of expense. If the beneficiary was the estate of the insured and the estate is large enough there could be estate tax consequences but under most normal circumstances there is not income tax on death benefits from a life insurance policy.
