You'll need to inform your insurance agent of any employees who drive your vehicles. If they feel that it's been long enough they may not be uncomfortable with the risk. On the other hand, many insurance companies consider drunk drivers to be in a high risk category and will considerably raise your insurance rates. Talk to your agent, be as frank as possible. Don't overstate or understate the situation. You'll probably need to put something in writing about the driver but the agent will tell you what you should do. If he has learned his lesson after his first DUI arrest, he should be given an opportunity to show what he can accomplish. On the other hand, if he's had multiple DUI arrests, he has demonstrated a contempt for law and the safety of others on the road and he is a serious risk to your business and to others on the road. Recognize that if you fail to reveal his driving record problems, the insurance company could refuse to pay for part or all of an insurance claim.

It really depends on the type of coverage you have. Normally if that person had permission to drive the vehicle, you have full coverage/collision insurance, and that person was at fault your insurance will cover damages. If someone else caused the accident, you would still receive damages from their insurance if they were insured. Sometimes however the driver's insurance would cover your damages under certain circumstances. As always, it is really best to ask your insurance carrier or refer to your most recent coverage letter from the company.
When a car is borrowed (with permission) the insurance of the car owner is primary and the insurance of the driver is secondary. Here, the car owner has no coverage to pay for the damage to his/her own car, so the driver's liability insurance would cover the cost of the car. That is assuming the driver has liability insurance, if the driver doesn't have liability insurance, the car owner is stuck (unless he sues the driver).
If you were in an accident yes it would, if you are talking about having insurance to cover criminal charges and fines, I'm pretty sure that is illegal.
Yes, it will. The fact that the other driver had no license has nothing to do with coverage and liability.
It depends on the individual policy. Most full coverage auto insurance policies will cover the driver no matter what car he or she is driving, but not all. Check with your insurance agent. to see what SPECIFIC coverage you have before you waive the rental insurance at the rental office.
