Insured driver. Course the accompanying driver should perhaps supervise
the insured trainee to see he doesn't incriminate himself!...

Following vehicle is in the wrong in that instance..

I don't understand your question, but in this part of the world,
the guy that hits you from behind is at fault.

The letter of the law in the UK is you exchange details with the driver,
however on top of that in a learner car you'll need details off the
'passenger' in this case. Probably always worth doing as the instructor
is classed as much as a driver as the passenger [1]. This is why they're
not allowed to sleep, drink, talk on the mobile etc whilst instructing
someone.

[1] and in the case of a paid for instructor will be the one with the
insurance details.
