My insurance company held me 10% responsible for not taking "evasive action." Will the 10% charge likely cause a higher rate elsewhere?
Anytime you are found liable in an accident it will impact rates. In this case, you were only found 10% liable, so it will not impact your rates as much as if you were 100% liable.
Is my insurance company responsible for balance after I've paid deductible?
Yes, if the damage is more than your deductible, then your insurance company should pay the remainder of the damages. There are some plans that will not transfer coverage to another vehicle but this is not common.
How should I handle a situation where I hit another car but the owner doesn't want to file a claim until next week?
While it is normally up to the party who was hit to initiate the claims process with your insurance company, you can always be proactive and contact your insurance provider to let them know what happened. You can provide pictures and the details of the incident to the claims department, but no repairs can begin until the other party decides to start the process.
