ANSWER
In this case you need to go to court and fight the ticket, if you believe that you are not at fault for the accident, however, based on your own insurance policy, it may be different. Most likely, both of the Insurance co. will deny liability to each other, and if you don't win your ticket in court, you are stuck with your own costs.

If you rear ended someone and no police report was made but a week later the other driver demanded 600 dollars for damages do you have to pay?
The person who is responsible for the accident should accept that responsibility and place a claim with their insurer or make a written agreement with the damaged party to reimburse them for their loss. The problem is in this case the "at fault" driver has no way to determine if the amount requested is valid. The "at fault" driver should under no circumstances render any monies until valid proof of damages and agreement on the amount that is to be paid has been submitted in writing and signed by all involved parties (driver of vehicle during accident, owner of vehicle, etc.).
