The owner of the vehicle must have the insurance in their name. You cannot legally insure something that you do not own. You can be listed as a driver on the policy and therefore can drive the car with no problem. You never want to insure something that you do not own because any benefits cannot be paid to you because you don't own the vehicle and they cannot pay the owner because he doesn't have a contract with the insurance company. I have, under special circumstances made exceptions with permission from the insurance company. If you son was in Iraq for military service for example, I have gotten the insurance company to allow the son to give the father power of attorney over the vehicle by signed and notarized documents. The policy is still written in the son's name as it should be but it allows the father to sign the insurance application and handle the insurance.

If I am uninsured and I want to drive my farther insured car can I still drive it legally?
It depends on our father's insurance. My children may drive my car because my insurance covers anyone I give permission to drive my car (they have have a valid license). However, my ex-wife's policy does not allow it - by not having this option she actually lowers her premium. This can vary from state to state and insurance policy to insurance policy. Have your father call his agent and get the correct answer for his policy. He may have to make an adjustment to his policy to allow you to drive his car.

Could you get car insurance with no car?
Not without insurable interest in a car. If you do not have a car, you do not need to have insurance. If you rent a car, you can get insurance for the rental, but that is a temporary policy. If you have permission to drive the car, you should be insured under the policy of the person from whom you borrowed the car.
Can I have Auto insurance without a car?
Ask an insurance company for a "broadform" policy. That will cover you for any car you drive. Yes, although it's rather pointless. Why pay for insurance on something that you don't even have or own ... there is no need. If you drive someone else's car, you are covered under their insurance policy, provided you have their permission to drive it.
If you drive a car with no insurance are you legally intitled to drive it on your car insurance?
That depends, because there are many different insurance coverages. You'll need to check your own car insurance policy and see if it covers you AND any car that you are driving. If you can't find that information anywhere in the policy then check with your insurance broker and ask. Sorry, but without actually reading YOUR policy that's the best answer I can give.
Is it legal to drive a car that is not insured on your insurance?
It is illegal to drive a car that is not insured for at least third party cover (i.e. if you hit someone then they - but not you - will get paid out). Therefore if the car is not covered on an insurance policy that YOU have then to drive it you would need to be covered on someone else's insurance. Some people hold insurance policies that allow anyone (with permission from the owner) with a valid license to drive the car and in this case you would b covered on this policy - many company cars have this sort of policy. It is you DUTY to make sure that you/the car has as covering policy before you drive it and that you can PRODUCE this policy for the police should they require you to do so.
If you have insurance on your car can someone else drive it?
It depends on the policy in the USA. In most European countries only named drivers can drive a car regardless of insurance policy - rental cars are the exception for obvious reasons.
