Yes as long as you can accept responsibitliy for any damages that she incurrs while in your vehicle. I do it all the time. Are you insured? Does she have a license? My understanding is that most insurances will cover the insurance holder as well as anything they drive, and also anyone who drives the insured vehicle.

Can you safely give your car having comprehensive and collision coverage to your friend who has a drivers license but no insurance?
If you're asking if your friend can simply borrow your car occasionally, and you carry full coverage and liability on the car, then yes, you should be okay. Car insurance follows the vehicle, so even if your friend has his own coverage and had an accident while driving your car, your insurance would still be primary. If, however, you're talking about allowing your friend to drive the car all the time, on a daily and/or regular basis, you could face problems if you don't let your insurance carrier know that your friend is using the car all the time. This is because the premiums you pay are based on you as a driver, not your friend.
You purchase the car at the dealer for your friend does the insurance has to be under your name also?
No, insurance does not always follow the owernership of the car unless you and your friend live in the same house and you have your driver's licence. If you tell the insurance company that you are not going to drive the car at all time and main driver is your friend, then you do not have to be under the same insurance.
If you allowed a friend to drive your car and he totaled it but his insurance company subtracted 500 from the check for the deductible why do you pay for his deductible?
Because this was an at-fault incident, the 500.00 deductible is your responsibility. You as the owner of the vehicle allowed your friend to drive the car to begin with. Your friend in all fairness should pay you the 500 dollars. Why is your friend's insurance paying you? Your own comprehensive/collision policy should pay you (less the deductible) and then "subrogate" the claim to your friend's auto or general liability insurance or sue him directly if he has no insurance and send you the deductible after they have collected.
If you are a driver who does not own a car but occasionally borrows or rents one do you need your own insurance?
Yes, because in order to drive legally, you need a license and a proof of insurance, not the deed to the car.An example includes rental cars. Even though you don't own the car, you need insurance to drive one.
Who's insurance covers you if you drive a friend's car but only have a learner's permit and your parent's and the friend are insured?
Usually the insurance on the car covers any permitted driver unless that driver is excluded in writing.
Would it effect the insurance he could get for his own car if my friend crashed my car with a learner's permit?
I wouldn't worry about your friend and his insurance, but your own. If you are a minor your parents owe for damages that your friend did to the other car. If you allowed him to drive the car without your parents permission that is a problem too. That was not smart allowing someone to drive your car.
