Not in the UK it's not ! If you knowingly drive a car without insurance - you're committing an offence - punishable by a fine & points on your licence. The vehicle's owner could also be in trouble for 'aiding and abetting' a criminal offence.

Can you drive a car if you don't have insurance but the car does you have a License?
All drivers are required by law to carry proof of Financial Responsibility. So if you are an insured driver under the terms of the Auto Insurance Contract then you are covered to drive it.

Auto Insurance Is to cover the losses and legal liabilities of the Insured.
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.

Is it legal to drive another person's car?
No, if one is not covered by an insurance policy, one may be cited if stopped. Thankfully, the law is permeable, so if one were to drive another's car in order to prevent public or personal damage, the police officer on the scene (if there is one) may elect to "let you go". In addition, it is legal to drive another person's car if you have their permission. Depending on where the vehicle is insured, insurance policies have provisions for drivers who are not covered by the policy but who have permission from the owner to drive it.

Is it legal for a resident of the same household to drive an insured vehicle if they are not specifically covered under that policy?
You can drive an insured vehicle if you're not on the policy because when the police pull you over they are looking to see if you have insurance on the car. But to answer the question...NO, it's not legal to drive the insured vehicle if your not on the policy. As always, check with your insurance agent, but anyone driving the auto with the policy owner's permission should be covered. However, ALL licensed drivers residing in the household are supposed to be listed on the policy.

You have fully comp car insurance can idrive another persons car third party if the car has a current mot and tax but the owners insurance has runout?
Of course you can drive it... you can drive any car you want... I think the question you are asking though is whether or not it will be legal to drive and whether or not an out of force car insurance policy will cover you if you wreck the vehicle even if it has a current tax and license... right? The answer to those questions is NO. If the current owner's coverage is not in force, it is not legal for you to drive the vehicle unless you have a Non-Owner Insurance policy which insures any vehicle you drive. An out of force policy will NOT cover you at all. Whether the vehicle has current license and tax has no bearing at all on whether you meet your States insurance guidelines.
