Ex Wife Gave Her Old Car To Our Son To Drive. Now Says I’m Responsible For Insurance

My ex-wife recently, against my wishes, gave our son her old vehicle to drive as she was purchasing a new one. This car she gave him to drive is in her name, it is titled in her name, and she owns it outright with no lien. I did not want to give our son a car. I was of the opinion that he had to earn it. Nevertheless, she has given it to him and has put a ridiculous amount of full coverage insurance on this car. Again, the car has no lien and is in her name and the insurance policy is all hers. She’s telling me that I am obligated to pay the car insurance for my son. We have 50-50 legal and physical custody. I have refused to pay the ridiculous full coverage premium. I have given her several other options, but she refuses to entertain any of them.. My my question is, am I even legally obligated to pay this at all? This is her insurance policy with a car that is owned outright by her. I don’t see how I’m responsible for paying that bill. There is nothing in our divorce decree that even mentions auto insurance.
