Reply to comment by SueSudio in My 19yo nephew was at fault and uninsured in an auto accident. He received a bill for $54k from the opposing insurance company. by MyFreeAccount

And that is true as well. Anyone can drive your car, given that they have a license. That's what being vehicle insured means...

There are cases where the insurance follows the driver, but it's just more common to see insurances that stay with the designated vehicle. In the case of the latter, a homeless you just ran into could drive your car with permission and would still be covered by the insurance.

Then why is any driver information relevant to the car insurance other than "who is paying"?

The only driver information that the insurance companies ask for is for those that live in your household. I already went over this in my above comment.
