Only the owner and permitted driver of a car can be held liable. You can sleep easy.

Only the driver and legal owner can be sued. If it is your son's truck, he would be the defendant UNLESS he was in the course of his employment with you. There has to be some connection to you and the occurrence. Call your insurance company just to be sure.

If you are the owner or driver, you can be sued. Luckily you have insurance, so they will defend you.
