I was under the impression that car insurance follows the car not the driver is this correct?

Insurance is indeed impacted by who is driving if that driver is a regular in that car. It could be a problem for you.
I am still pretty convinced that once the dealer looks closer that it will be a write off. That rocker panel is an expensive repair and the airbags alone could chew up almost half the $10K.
