Yes, but only if they DO NOT live with you.

This is why I don't let other people drive my car!
The golden rule of insurance..."Insurance follows the vehicle, tickets/violations follow the driver". Always remember this.
The accident should be covered on your insurance as long as the driver is not listed as an "excluded" driver on your policy. And generally, if you gave the driver permission to be operating your vehicle, it shouldn't be a problem. Unless there's some odd situation that applies to you that you aren't telling us, it should be covered.
Good luck.

Generally speaking, as long as you arent committing misrep (meaning this person uses your car daily and should have been on your policy the whole time) and as long as they had permission to drive your car- you'll be fine.
Insurance follows the vehicle- not the driver.

I think it should. It is my understanding that the insurance policy covers the vehicle itself, not the driver. The only way it wouldn't is if that particular driver was excluded from your insurance. (For example, when I was younger, my parents' insurance company told them that they would not cover me driving their cars because of my driving record.) Otherwise, I really think it should.

No way to know, you'll have to ask them.
It's be simpler to explain if you were in the car, and you explained that you can't drive (too tired, had a drink, whatever).
Some companies cover "friends" (i.e. unlisted drivers) without questions, (I think GEICO does), others don't. Again, ASK.

As long as they don't live with you. Depending on the insurance they may require his insurance pay for it.

The answer varies from place to place.
Why would you ask something so important of the know nothings here?

If he was driving with your permission it should be covered.
