I believe that I understand what you are asking. If I am not correct ask it again and I will try to do better. Auto insurance generally follows the vehicle and not the driver. Only the person who owns the vehicle can insure are vehicle except in a situation of an immediate family. One policy can cover members of the family even if the vehicle is in the name of other members of the family as long as they all live in the same household.

Yes. In the United States it is called "uninsured motorist coverage." Oops, I misread the question. UMC described above is if someone without license or insurance hits your car.

The cheapest way to go in that situation is to register yourself as the primary driver and the banned driver is completely taken off the registration. This way, the banned driver still holds the title but is not registered to drive it, and the insurance will be less.
