Yes, the owners of the vehicle (and driver of course) are the ones sued, it has nothing to do with who is the named insured on the insurance policy.

What happens if you get into an accident but only have a license but no insurance but the other person has a license and insurance?

Two problems... First, if the accident was in any way your fault, then you are on the hook for that percentage of the cost of the accident. Since most accidents are never 100% one person's fault, this could cost you thousands or more. Even though the other driver most probably has un-insured/under-insured coverage, you can be assured that he/she will subrogate the claim, and their insurance company will come after you for payment. Second, many states require insurance as a requirement for driving a car. Failure to have insurance is a chargeable offense, and you could be fined and/or jailed because of this. At minimum, you can expect that your license will be suspended or revoked.


Who is responsible for a car accident the car owner or the person the insurance policy is under and the car owners friend is driving owner insured owners friend?

The people responsible for an automobile accident are those who are operating the involved vehicles at the time of the accident - unless the cause is mechanical failure or some other event outside the control or any of the operators. The person responsible for paying for the resulting damages may be the vehicle owners or the person who bought the vehicle insurance (usually, but not always, the same person). When operator negligence is involved, the operator may be responsible for paying the damages, even though the operator is not the insured person.

Can you claim person injury on your own insurance?

This is unclear. If you're asking if your medical insurance will pay for someone else's treatment... no. If you're asking if your liability insurance will cover your own personal injuries... probably not, though that's less certain, and it might apply in some cases like a "no-fault" auto accident.


I was in a car accident and my insurance will not provide a rental car even though i have full coverage can they do that?

You only get a rental if your policy specifies that you chose to pay extra to have rental car coverage. Having collision coverage is not the same thing as having rental. Collision coverage just covers the repairs to your vehicle. If you are not at fault for the accident, the other person's insurance will provide you with a rental car.
