the owner/insured of the vehicle that has a collison claim is the one that pays/owes that deductible... deductibles only apply on your own vehicle repair...not the person's you hit (except for some commerical policys that have a deductible on their liabilty coverages)....now if you elect to use your coverage and another party is At Fault, then some times they will 'front' the deductible (if liablity has been determined and they have accepted full liab.) or your company will subrogate then entire amount including your deductible from the at fault party once all repairs have been made...but assuming you are at fault or it was a hit and run and can't find other party and you are using your collison coverage, then you will owe your deductible

What kind of insurance policy would cover your car in the event it is hit in a parking lot?

That would be comprehensive coverage. Anonymous is wrong! It would be collision. It doesn't matter if the vehicle was occupied or parked. If something on the ground collides with your auto it is a collision claim. If your car is hit, then, yes, collision insurance covers it, but the *other driver's* collision. In the event that the other driver does not have or does not have enough collision insurance, you will need uninsured/underinsured motorist covered to pay for your loss, which, by the way, also pays for your loss if your car was hit in the parking lot and the other driver took off (i.e., hit-and-run). Comprehensive coverage will take care of this in NY. Vandalism I am a experienced agent for a large company, if the driver does not turn himself in to you it would be covered under the comprehensive portion of your contract. (and would be considered vandalism).if the driver stays and his company pays the expense it would be covered under collison on his policy.
