Perhaps a definition will help... fault or non-fault doesn't come into play. Even if you were rear ended but you were being a dick to cause the other driver to rear end you, you can get nicked for neg driving.
"In NSW, the standard for proving negligent driving is fairly low. A driver may be found to be negligent if they did not drive in the manner that a reasonable prudent driver would have driven given all the circumstances. A determination of all of the circumstances includes including consideration of the variable factors such as weather, road and traffic conditions. "
Or here is the actual law:

Thanks Pete and I know about the new tailgating laws they changed that so you couldn't slam ur brakes and get a free rear end repair lol based on the being a dick comment. The variable factors I suppose in Scott's case wouldn't have been considered based on the vechile actually being the factor. I wont comment any further on it but yer all the best to you Scott I hope it all works out for you and a set of Evo XI keys fall into your lap
By that definition he shouldn't have been given the Neg Driving ticket...
Sound more like a case of 'guy in a sports car crashed, must be a hoon'.
Surely they need evidence to show it was negligence, not evidence to show it wasn't.
But seeing as they're investigating the crash, perhaps it was just a temporary thing until the truth was found, but its still pretty stupid.

I've been in the insurance game 5 years, my family 40+ years (we run the largest privately owned brokerage in AUS) and none of this insurance -v- police blah blah business adds up nor makes any sense
So rather than calling bullsh!t on your whole version of events I'll be constructive. If the vehicle is involved in a single vehicle incident involving a total loss an investigator is appointed. Suggest you talk to the investigator, you're only delaying settlement of your claim further
Best of luck with your recovery
