No it wasn't a mistake.
Your friend knowingly and willingly drove your vehicle without insurance - Tough !!
You got in the passenger seat when you should have drove - tough.
You parked in a zone which you shouldn't have. That zone is there for a reason.
Again tough !
Expect no sympathy - do stupid things and expect the consequences.

From the Crown Prosecution Service:
Offences of causing or permitting the uninsured use of a vehicle should be regarded as being as serious as using a motor vehicle without insurance.
