Yes, some insurers have rules that even if there was an accident with no payout or no claim made, your premiums will be affected. So once you report the incident to your insurer, they will consider it a claim against your future premiums. However, there are some companies out there that will not hold the incident against you, so would recommend you shop around for the best rate based on your situation.

Yes. If it is determined that the accident was your fault, your insurance company will raise your rates. However, the rate increase is often fairly minor.

Your insurance agent should be able to tell you how much the increase will be.
