From what I've heard, most if not all EU insurances cover the
vehicle rather than specific named drivers. As others have said,
there's not much overseas police can or will do to find the
driver. Was he from an EU country? Since the B word the UK has
lost access to EU driver records, and the same applies to EU
countries losing access to the DVSA database.

He was from Belgium. Would the authorities abroad not be able to
access the database based on the name and address, and supply a
digital copy of the driver's license/ insurance policy?

Technically, yes. But it’s still your reverse burden.

What makes you think that the Belgian authorities (a) are
bothered or (b) are required to do so?

Before Brexit it's reputed the UK police forces never applied
to EU countries for 'owner' details.
France did issue penalty notices to UK RKs, initially in French,
and, just before Brexit, in an English language version.
