Usually your standard lines car insurance policy does transfer when you rent a car.
Limited lines policies generally DO NOT transfer to a rental car.
It is always best to check with your auto insurance agent first, before you rent a car and assume you have coverage and to also find out if you have any applicable deductibles.
An example I can give you is that when we vacationed in Hawaii and rented scooters, our auto owners insurance would not cover us because we were in the state of Hawaii, which had some type of exclusion. So, is best to check with your agent before you rent your transportation.

Is it possible to have your name on your parents insurance policy if the car loan and the registration are in your name?
This is not a good idea. You need your own insurance policy. There are coverages you do not have by being on your parents policy. You want to be a "named insured". This means that you control the policy and not your parents. If you want to loan your car to anyone you can, if you are on your parents policy you cannot do this. Also if you need to rent a car, you are not covered under your parents policy to do this. You would be under your own policy. Contact your insurance agent for a better explanation.
