You can be sued but your real concern is most likely how far your insurance company will support this. The insurance company has a limited liability and will fight to protect that, which in turn will help to protect you up to the limit of your insurance.

If you have liability insurance on one vehicle are you insured if you drive another vehicle?

Auto insurance typically covers the car, not the driver. So, if you have insurance on your vehicle, but you drive another vehicle that doesn't have insurance, you are not protected by your policy if you have an accident in that other vehicle. However, if you have insurance on your vehicle, and you lend it to a driver (from another household) who does not have his or her own insurance, they will be covered by your policy while they are driving your car.


What does it mean when someone is excluded from an auto insurance policy?

By excluding a person from an auto insurance policy, you are stating that the "excluded" person will not drive the insured vehicle, and that you understand that the "excluded" person is not covered by your insurance in the case of any traffic violation (accident, ticket, etc.). It means there is no coverage available to the excluded person in the case of an accident while driving the said vehicle. There will be NO COVERAGE.

Can you be sued in an auto accident when neither vehicle was insured?

Can you drive a parents car with them in it if your not insured before you pass your test if you display l plates and they are supervising you?

Yes, but you will be driving illegally. Regarding insurance on written on a personal auto policy, if an insured driver gives you permission to drive their insured vehicle, their insurance covers your liability in an accident. The coverage extends to anyone, whether they are a legal driver, 4 years old, don't have a license, or are blind. However, you need a license to drive in order to be legal.Added: What the question is missing is a statement that you ALREADY HAVE a drivers license or learners permit. If you do NOT have one, you cannot drive under ANY circumstances. As for insurance - it is not the licensed driver that requires insurance, it is the VEHICLE which must be insured.


What happens if an uninsured unlicensed driver is driving your insured car and has an accident?

If you have Auto liability Insurance and you gave this person perrmission to drive, The Insurer will probably have to pay the bill for the accident.

Your next Auto Insurance Policy premium will take into account your claims history and charge accordingly.

Is it legal for a resident of the same household to drive an insured vehicle if they are not specifically covered under that policy?

You can drive an insured vehicle if you're not on the policy because when the police pull you over they are looking to see if you have insurance on the car. But to answer the question...NO, it's not legal to drive the insured vehicle if your not on the policy. As always, check with your insurance agent, but anyone driving the auto with the policy owner's permission should be covered. However, ALL licensed drivers residing in the household are supposed to be listed on the policy.
