Cars are not insured, drivers are insured for their liability while driving a specific automobile. This person could have had all the insurance in the world, for driving his car, but it would not matter at all while he was driving another car. In any event, insured or uninsured, he is legally responsible for the ticket.

If it's a parking ticket then you must make certain it's paid even if you have to pay it yourself. Otherwise the amount due will keep increasing and will affect you, your driver's license and your car registration.

Tickets issued during a traffic stop are issued to the person whose license is presented to the ticketing police/trooper/patrolman/deputy. Tickets that are issued to a car- such as parking tickets and tickets from right light and speed trap cameras are the responsibility of the person who owns the car. Note that if a an uninsured driver borrows your car and gets a ticket, they may get in trouble if they cannot show that they had permission to borrow the car since their name will not appear on the registration or insurance card in the vehicle.

If an uninsured driver gets a ticket for causing an accident while driving your insured car, your insurance company will probably be asked to pay for the damage to the other vehicle - and your insurance rates may go up.
