If you are in a lane, you own it. You are not required by law to accept anybody into your lane, no matter what. It is their job to find an opening, and merge safely. That's what's tough about getting on the freeway, or merging when a lane ends. You need to wait until somebody lets you in. If they honk at you because they thought you should have let them in, they should learn how to merge. It is a kind gesture if you slow and let them in, but you do not have to! So, you are in the right. They should yield the right of way to you.

A 6 ton truck back half hit a car's front right panel while turning left at a round about who's fault will it be?
It would be the fault of the truck unless the vehicle struck can be determined to be at fault for a lane violation.
Who is at fault if car in right lane moves to left lane and hit by truck on left side near gas tank behind rear wheels?
The fault lies with the car moving from the right lane to the left. He or she should have looked and ensured there was room before moving over. The truck already in the left lane should have made room, if it could. If the above-mentioned driver's lane change was abrupt and unsignaled, or if there was no opportunity for the truck in the left lane to make room, then the truck will have little blame.
If your car get hit by another car merging into your lane who is at fault?
the other person merging into your lane. it is the person's responsibility to merge safely with traffic. they need to be going faster then the people already there. you being on the road gives you the right way. i see this all the time. most people think that you should move over for them. no. wrong. they need to step on the gas OS step on the brakes.
You were driving straight in the far left lane of traffic when truck came across the traffic lane without looking and you hit them in the side so who is at fault?
The driver of the vehicle that swerved into your lane would be charged with "Changing Lanes Without Caution."
If a semi truck makes a left turn from the center lane of a 3 lane one way road onto a one lane one way road and a car is hit by his left rear trailer tire while in the left lane who is at fault?
That depends... I drive truck. To answer this correctly I need to ask two questions. Was the two vehicles traveling on an open highway or designated freeway? Or, Were the two vehicles sitting at an intersection waiting for the green light? If they were traveling on an open highway the truck should have signaled his intentions and moved over to the left lane when it was safe to do so. Now.... most of the time, a truck will signal a lane change and any cars traveling in that lane will sneak up next to his rear wheels. The truck who is already commited to the lane change may or may not see the car. So, the car is at fault. The second scenario is just as complicated. The truck has to be in the farthest lane from the turn to make the turn without running over the sidewalk. If the truck was making a left turn and the car came up alongside to make a left turn also, again the car could be made accountable. But most likely the truck will be held at fault because he should have been paying attention to the turning side of his vehicle. Especially the left side since he does not need his mirrors to see what's on that side of the truck.

Who is fault when proceeding from 2 lane road to 1 lane road and hit from rear end side?
That depends on who was in the lane of travel, and who was in the merge lane. The merge lane is the one required to yield to the travel lane. If the vehicle in the merge lane failed to yield the right-of-way, that'll definitely be a factor. However, other factors may apply, as well. Motorists have a bad tendency to want to suddenly speed up and pass a merging vehicle when they see a turn signal. Excessive speed/reckless driving on the part of one or both drivers will play a factor in determining fault, as well. In short, one would have to know all the details of the situation you described in order to determine whose at fault.
