That really depends on the situation. Most car insurance companies allow parents to pay for their son's car insurance IF he is living together with his parents AND that the car is garaged with them. If his son is living independently with his own car and has his own home where he can garage his car, then he will be paying his own car insurance.
Any wrecks resulting in claims or ticket points will be held against the parent's premium if he is merely included on their policy.
