In OP's case, I would get my own insurance involved. IDK why they weren't in the first place, especially OP wasn't at fault. At least it wasn't made clear.
Hmm, not sure on the lienholder angle. Thats' an interesting one I never thought of! Will need to investigate.

I was 100% not at fault. WA State Patrol report said so much. I opted to go through the other guy's insurance rather than involving mine as my feeling is I'll fight harder for my desired outcome than my insurance company will.
