Of course. They are insuring another vehicle. The second vehicle doubles the insurance company's exposure. The fact is that all [to my knowledge] insurance companies do require additional premium for additional vehicles, for the reason stated in the 2nd sentence in Answer 1. So I have agree with the first part of Answer 1, but I still feel it CAN BE a very unfair system. I have to disagree with the part about "doubling" the exposure. That condition would only be true IF there were two drivers using the vehicles simultaneously. A single driver, owning and insuring two vehicles, would NOT DOUBLE the exposure, since one cannot drive two vehicles simultaneously.

Can my license be suspended for not paying insuranc I placed on someone elses vehicle?

In most states an insurance company must report to the DMV of your state that your insurance is been canceled. This often results in your state suspending your drivers license unless you can prove that you do not have a vehicle, and that the reason your insurance was canceled was because you no longer have a vehicle. The license plate that was obtained for the vehicle must be returned to the DMV. If insurance was purchased for the vehicle from another insurance company, then you must provide proof that you have insurance from the new insurance company. If the actual owner of the vehicle bought insurance from another insurance company, then this should be easy to prove.

If someone with auto insurance hits your car do you still need to report to your own auto insurance?

It really depends what state you live in. Although if you have full coverage on your vehicle you should report through your company and your company will go after the other insurance company to get their money back. If you have no collision coverage for your vehicle then you will need to file with the other insurance company and they will decide who was at fault for the accident, if their insured is at fault they will repair your vehicle
