That's going to depend on what your insurance company allows. Some allow you to insure a vehicle that is not in your name others do not. At the company I previously worked for we did allow you to insure a vehicle in your name even if the title was not in your name.
You had to add an "owned by endorsement" to the policy. They will get all of the information about the owner as well as all of your information and run both driving records. Depending on the age of the grandchild, they might even rate for them on the vehicle if they do not have another vehicle that is insured in their name, or if they are not rated on another insurance policy.

Yes most insurance company never ask for the title. there are Insurance company's on the web that will insure you and the vehicle weather you own it or not.
can you have insurance on a car if the title is not in your name? Generally, no. You don't have anything to insure (called insurable interest). The only time this is permitted is with spouses. The car's title may be in either name, but may be on the others insurance.
No. The person whose name is on the legal title must insure the vehicle. The mother-in-law should be rated as the driver, but if your name is on the title, you must insure it.
no
Insure?? yes, register? NOT unless your name is on the TITLE.
I know you can put the car your insurance but to register a different story
Your parents would need to add the car to their own policy.
The lien must be paid off and the title must then be signed over to you. You cannot insure and register the car in your name without a title.
To give you a basic answer, the insurance company will only insure a vehicle if the listed owner is on the policy. Mark
By saying that your name is not on the registration, I assume that it also is not on the title. If you or your spouse do not own the vehicle you cannot insure it. It doesn't matter how you ask the question. You must have interest in the vehicle to insure it.
You have to be 16 to buy a car in Massachusetts. You will need to title and insure the car in your name.
