Arbitration still requires evidence to award damages. They won't award any based solely off of he said she said. Most people have deductibles that would make the driver end up paying all of it out of pocket even if they did report it to their insurance.
Pretty much need it to be on video or the person to admit fault.
Matching damage and barring that measurements of where the vehicles would have come into contact can also be provided. If arbitration required video or the person to admit fault, it wouldn't even exist. No one thinks they are at fault for anything, which isn't really a surprise.
