There is no requirement that you be notified about ANY report filed against you - about the only way you might find out is if an officer or detective approached you to ask questions or conduct an investigation - OR - they might simply arrest you with no notification at all - OR - the police may not deem it worthy of police action and you may never hear anything about it.

The police and/or judge may be able to compel person in question to disclose the information.

Can an insurance company decide who is at fault when a police report has been filed?
An insurance company can assign fault regardless if a police report is filed or not. A police report is simply a report made by a neutral party at an accident scene. I believe there have been cases where insurance companies have assigned fault to one party when the opposing party was initially named at fault in a report.
