That could of happened from a number of factors, and not just your accident,
from the amount paid on your loss, whether it was a no fault claim is
irreverent. It was paid, and depending on your three year loss history,
premium paid in those three years, and the loss ratio determined between
premiums paid and losses paid out, the rates could have gone up, just
because of a major loss, on both the liability and property lines of
coverage.
It could be the reinsurer raising their rates to the carrier providing your
coverage. This a common occurrence in all lines of coverage since 9-11 took
place.
Your carrier could have experienced high loss ratios on earned premiums in
your state. Or ... the state allowed the rate increase, because of the over
all auto loss ratios for all carriers in the state.

Speaking only for Florida, the amount paid out on a claim is not a factor
in the amount you are charged for your auto insurance.
