Re: No Fault Auto Accidents, Who's to blame and who pays the bill?
The finding by the police is only for criminal purposes. It does not have any civil enforcement. The question of who was at fault would go to a jury if the case proceeds that far.
Why was the insurance canceled? I would notify your insurance company of the claim and wait for them to deny their duty to defend in writing.
