Need more info. Daylight or dark? If dark, did reflectors or lights on the trailer (if you had any) meet DMV requirements for a moving vehicle? Moving or stopped? USUALLY it is the striking vehicle which gets charged in a rear-end collision investigation, but if the vehicle that was struck 'contributed' to the collision, then you could be charged.
Nighttime- you. Daytime- the other person.
The answer depends on your expectations and what the police decided to do in the actual situation. You are responsible to follow laws on brake and tail lights when you operate a motor vehicle. At the very least you would be ticketed for that. How can you think of blaming someone who could not see you at night? During the day, they were only able to guess if you were planning to turn, change lanes or stop.
You are both at fault you shouldn't have ran into the car and he/she should have had there lights on you are not at fault if it was dark or you couldn't see them
Trailer Brake Control fault.
It depends on the situation. If you stoped short and got rear ended it is your fault. But if you stoped becasue the driver in front of you stoped then it is that persons fault. If you are sitting at a stop light and get rear ended it is there fault. If you are parked in a parking zone and get rear ended it is there fault. Hope this Helped
The driver who rear ended you is at fault.
no fuse the switch is the common fault
the attachment of the lorry to the trailer
Obviously the person driving behind you would be at fault.
In New Jersey it is the driver who rear ended him who is at fault. However, that does not mean that the illegal unlicensed driver will not face deportation.
no.i would try to get the license number of the vehicle that dropped the item if possible,if you cant ,depending on your ins,policy ,(i have full coverage) the insurance will claim it as a road hazard
San Andrea's fault is a strike slip fault. Major earthquakes occur at such faults. Refer to Elastic Rebound Theory.
