Shouldn't be shady at all, you should be able to add a named driver
to a policy and drop them at will as long as (in my case) they
weren't unmarried and under 25.  In fact, I think I could do it
by switching a policy to the subject car and driving an existing
car on the 30 day grace period I get for cars which I own...
NOW that would be getting a little shady.

You gotta read the fine print of the policy.
