Q: Does my insurance policy cover a friend if I loan him/her my car?
A:
When you loan your car to a friend or an associate, he or she will be covered under your Automobile insurance policy. As long as the person either has a policy of their own or they are not a regular user of the car. Otherwise they must be listed on your policy as a driver.
