Best Answer

Technically the driver of the car is not responsible since It wasn't his intention. However as long as the driver communicate with the property owner and convince him about the situation. There are 2 scenarios : # If the property owner request that you move your car from the property ASAP, you are responsible to move the car by either calling tow truck or move the car yourself. If you deny it than you are liable for trespassing # If the property owner accept the situation, you have either option to remove the car or park the car until helps arrives. 3. Neither answer addresses the question. "the car was broken into" If the owner of the car gave the keys to the property owner saying something of the nature of 'hold the keys in case you have to move it or something' or the property owner takes money for the parking then the property owner is responsible for the car; but, if the car owner just asks permission to park it there, the owner of the car takes the liability for any damage or loss.

Are you liable for a car accident on private property?

It depends, so here are some scenerios: If there are several cars parked in a private driveway and you back-up or start speeding out of the driveway and hit another car then you are responsible for hitting the other car. If you were speeding on a road and turned a curve and ended up on someone's property you are responsible for the damage done on their property and that includes ripping up gardens, grass, crashing into any part of that home or uprooting trees. If you were on private property and someone else hit you causing you to damage that property then it would be the other person that is responsible.
