Vehicle insurance is compulsory in the United States and Canada. One can face a fine in addition to other punishment in addition to being open to a direct lawsuit by the other driver. Depending on the severity of the wreck, it may cost a whole lot of money.

The vehicle owner is responsible for 100% of the damages. They can let anyone drive their vehicle as long as they have a valid license (being uninsured is not a factor), but if they turn their vehicle over to an unlicensed driver, the insurance company will not pay that claim.

What is uninsured insurance?

In auto insurance, 'uninsured insurance' refers to a type of coverage for accidents caused by a motorist without insurance or hit-and-run accidents in which the driver who caused the wreck cannot be identified. In other words, your insurance may cover the cost of damage to your car, medical expenses, and other expenses. http://www.superpages.com/supertips/what-is-uninsured-or-underinsured-motorist-coverage.html

If vehicle is uninsured and allows someone else to drive that uninsured vehicle who is responsible if the vehicle is damaged but no other vehicle person or property is involved in the wreck?

In the eyes of the law....YOU would still be liable....unless you have evidence that shows the driver of your car operated it in an irresponsible manner....(remember it has to be, "Beyond a proponderance of a doubt.") otherwise, YOU allowed someone to drive a vehicle belonging to YOU, and YOU loaned that vehicle to another person knowing their was no insurance on said vehicle.....see where this is going?? I was a Police Officer in the United States Air Force for a few years..... Hope this helps even though I know it is not what you were hoping to hear... Randy G.
