PLPD is also known as liability. If YOU hit someone else's car meaning that you are at fault, any repairs will come out of your own pocket because PLPD only covers damages for other vehicles. If you were not at fault it doesn't matter what coverage you have because their insurance carrier (if they have one) should pay for your vehicle damages.

What happens if someone borrows your car and gets into an accident and does not have a valid drivers license?
You need to read your insurance policy now or have someone look at it quickly. Some policies state that no coverage exists if you loan a vehicle to someone that is not licensed, that you know is not licensed, or that you should know is not licensed. This means that you could have to pay for the accident out of your pocket. Be very careful with loaning vehicles. I recommend that my clients not loan vehicles because you are also loaning your insurance and you insurance record. State to State laws vary as well so you will want to check state law as well.
