Most policies that allow you to drive someone else's car have as a condition that the other car that you will be driving - the one that "isn't yours" has to have it's own insurance held seperately too.

Not so that you can claim on it instead of yours, but to ensure that people don't skank the system.

Not that I am inferring you are doing that. Good God no.

But I would check it out if I were you.
