Rejected petition LET ME DRIVE - Change the insurance policy from the drivers to the actual car

Why in England do you have to insure the person and not the car? Why are there so many of us who could drive but can't afford to add themselves to their parents' insurance? Please change the law so once the car is insured, all the house hold can drive it and make life so much easier for everyone!!!
