Geesh, we sure do need to be right around here. This accident does not appear to be the OP's fault.
Your statement is true in MA, IF the accident is YOUR FAULT your rates may go up if you file a claim.
In MA an accident that is not your fault does not cause your rates to go up in. If you are less than 50% at fault, the insurance carrier recoups the $ from the at fault person.
If it's a hit and run and they can't recoup, the insured would be responsible for deductible only and I do not think the rates would go up if they paid that claim.

Regardless, better to be safe than sorry and call the cops, no matter what Steve's

Geesh, your reply to my statement shows you wanted to be right too.
It's the MA laws that will apply here, not NH or ME.
