When this happens, your Insurance company pays for damages. If the accident is your fault, your insurance rates can go up.
Will your insurance premium go up if you are not at fault in Michigan?
Usually if an accident is determined not to be the insured's fault, then their insurance rates will not rise as the insurance company did not lose any money from covering the driver involved in the accident. If the accident is determined as being inconclusive, the rates may rise some, to adjust for the amount of money the insurance company lost in the accident.

Are auto insurance companies in Canada allowed to raise rates because of an accident?
Yes they are, and the majority of time that is when they will raise rates, especially when you are at fault. If you were at-fault for the accident and had to make a insurance claim, then your rates will definitely increase, since you are a higher risk driver, and the insurance company had to pay out because of you. If you are in an accident that you were not at fault, then your rates should not increase but they might. Some companies again see this as you being a higher risk driver since you were in a accident, even if it wasn't your fault, so they will raise the rates. If this happens, I recommend switching insurance companies, as a good company should not do this. In either case your rates will not increase until your insurance is up for renewal. At which point, if they do increase I would recommend looking around and comparing prices from other companies

How would an insurance claim affect your future rates in a hit and run accident that was not your fault?
According to my experience, it should not affect your insurance rates if you were not at fault. I was involved in a hit-and-run myself, and at the time I was too nervous to jot down the correct license plate. I filed the report anyways though.Of course, due to the severity of the accident and whether or not you were injured, that would determine how much money your insurer need to shell out. However, as long as it's not your fault, they have no reason to increase your rates.Good luck!
How does filing an accident report affect your driving record and insurance if you are not filing an insurance claim?
It goes on your record and your insurance rates get adjusted.
If you have no fault auto insurance will your insurance rates increase if you happen to be in an accident in which you were not at fault?
Generally speaking, no. However, in any moving incident/violation, your driving record is checked. If it turns out that you have a few past speeding tickets, and maybe another previous accident or two where you were not at fault, the insurance company may choose to tag you as a high-risk driver and increase your premium. On the other hand, if you are a driver with a spotless record, your rates will probably not go up in the event of an accident where you are not at fault.
If you was on your dads insurance as a named driver does in affect their premium if you have an accident?
Yes, the general idea of insurance is that your rates go up when you cause an accident and they are forced to pay out.
What will a G2 driver on their parents insurance have to pay in insurance rates if they get in an accident?
I assume you are Canadian. I am as well, and I am a Broker. First of all, it's dependant upon if the accident was at fault, so rates may not change. If you are at fault, no matter if you are dropped thereafter, there will still be a price hike. If it's not at fault, generally the rate should stay the same. Rates may double in the case of at fault, dependant on company. Being a G2 driver already means premiums will increase the parents' policy. If you are in an at fault accident, this will further raise the cost. If you were not at fault, the premiums should NOT increase.
