Car insurance is just that: insurance for the car. When a contract between the insured and the insurance company is purchased, it is based on the driver and the vehicle. If the driver takes someone else's vehicle, the insurance is only for the original car. There would be no pay out for someone else's car.

Example: Driver A buys insurance for Vehicle A valued at $5,000. Driver A uses Vehicle B that is valued at $35,000. The insurance cost is obviously not the same therefore the coverage is not there. In the event of bodily injury, coverage up to the agreed limits are there.

Remember, health insurance does not cover care and or treatment due to a vehicular accident.

I hope this helps clarify the questions.
