Insurance companies do not fine anyone for any reason. However, if you allow a person who does not have a license drive your vehicle it is most likely a violation of the terms of your insurance policy which is a legally binding contract. In the contract you most likely have agree to report any drivers to the insurance company and not to allow anyone who is unlicensed to drive your vehicle. By violating the terms of the contract the company will most likely not cover any damages caused while the vehicle is being operated by unlicensed driver. This will void the policy completely. Why would you want to do this for any reason?

Any damage would not be covered by your insurance company especially if you gave them permission to drive it.

To add to that, if you say it was stolen and it is not and you don't roll over on the unlicensed driver, you will be investigate for insurance fraud and if they catch you, you will be denied on the claim and could possibly face criminal charges yourself.
