Response : If you lend a car to your teenage son who is a minor and does not have a license than you would defintely be resposible. Yes, if he meets with an accident than you would be responsible as an adult and the insurance company would not pay.

However, with the as per the latest news as of February 9th there has been a pair of bills that has been advanced in a Seneate committtee. As per the bill the parents or adults liablity for loaning a car to a minor who crashes into some one else. Till now the insurance companies were not paying for the claims and where dragging the investigations, but now as per the bill SB70 and SB62. For more details you can go to
Salt Lake Tribune

Also the parents would not be spare if they loan the car to a person known to be impaired or otherwise especially risky on the roads.

My personal advice would be not to lend a car to the minor unless you have already named him or her as a driver of your car. This way he or she would be insured. Yes, the premium might be high but there are ways of obtaining cheap auto insurance or cheap car insurance which you can see here.
Thanks.
