He learned one lesson, at least. He hasn't learned the more important lesson, however.
The one he learned: Despite what his friend says, insurance does not automagically transfer over. Now that he's confirmed it here, I'm betting he choses surrender over fight, and sends that cop a $25 Tim Horton's gift card for saving him over $2800.
The one he hasn't learned: Legal questions are best answered by legal experts. His friend nearly led him to disaster, but he still goes to an internet forum for more advice.
Asking us is cool, but we're really no better than your friend, dude. Call your insurance company and ask them what you would have to do to transfer your insurance if you sold your current car and bought a new one. That will confirm both what you need to do to get the new car insured, and verify that you were in the wrong.
