Possibly both drivers would be assigned a percentage of the responsibility. If not, it would be the fault of the driver pulling out of the driveway. It is your responsibility to make sure that you have ample time and space to enter any roadway before you do so. If the other driver was exceeding the speed limit, they could be assigned the fault, with the thought that if they had been traveling the proper speed, they would be in control of the vehicle and could have avoided it.
O.K. The vehicle that is backing out is backing out from private property. The vehicle that is pulling away should have the right of way. You see when a vehicle is trying to enter a Highway via driveway, parking lot, ect. he is ASKING for the right of way and he is responsible for yielding. Hope this helps.

If a vehicle is pulling into roadway from driveway, the vehicle pulling out is at fault.
Pulling into your driveway doesn't provide you any safe haven from receiving a ticket if a police officer registered you speeding and was engaged in an active pursuit of your vehicle prior to you pulling into your driveway.
In the UK it can, if the driveway is private property.
In most states a property owner can make his property subject to vehicle code enforcement. Then the violation is the same as if it had occurred on the street. If you did not have permission to use the driveway you could also be charged with trespassing. Vehicle codes vary quite a bit from state to state. Several of my friends and acquaintances died on motorcycles doing stunts and speeding on private driveways and lots. The cop may be doing you a big favor.
Yes.

If a train going at a high rate of speed collides with a vehicle, it will almost assuredly totally destroy the vehicle and kill the people in it. Though chances of survival are better when the train is going a slow speed, the devastation to the vehicle and occupants of the vehicle is still very likely to be grave.
Yes, in Pa.
All entries into a roadway should be treated as a stop sign. The vehicle entering the road is the vehicle that should be defensive. If the car B was not speeding or driving erratically, there is no fault there.
any vehicle leaving private property and entering a public road ,is at fault. all vehicles leaving private property MUST yield to vehicles on a public road
Speeding is never permitted, at least not in CT.
