In most states in the United States, you do not need to carry proof of insurance with you, but you must be able to produce it in court. No penalty exists for not having proof of insurance with you. Most cars come with a folder in the glove compartment with two pockets. One pocket is for the registration and the other is for the insurance card. Inform your friend.
What will happen in court will probably depend on the other information on the citation.

You can't unless they tell you who they are insured with. Who a person is insured with or even if they have insurance is a private matter between the insured and the insurance company. Now, if there is an accident and the police come to the scene they will collect that information and put it in the accident report. This is why it is crucial to always call the police to the scene of the accident no matter how much the other person begs to give them a break. Always, always!!! call the police to the scene of an accident. The exception is if the accident is on private property.
