What do you do when a police officer hits your car and refuses to pay for damages?

honeybeebee84 asked:


I was making a right turn with my signal light on when a police officer opened his door without looking and hit my rear passenger door so hard that it took the paint off and put a severe dent in my door. The police officer is saying that his insurance will not cover it, only mine will. What should I do? What are my options?
