When the police determine fault, there is little you can do. You could fight it out in court, but it may end up wasting more money in the end.

Who is liable when car a leaving out of parking lot backs into car b that is behind car and car b has no insurance and no license?

Parking lot accident are the most awful claims to deal with. Unless you have witnesses or video of the accident. It is a case of he said/she said. Since all parking lot of private property, it is not a policy issue either. Most of these cases end up being a 50/50, 60/40, or 30/70 type of at fault claim. If you are ever involved in an accident in a parking lot, find witnesses and get their information! Also, check to see if there are cameras in the lot and get footage of the incident.

Who's at fault when partially pulled out of a paralleled parking spot a car hits you?

If you are pulling into traffic, from a being parked, you have interrupted the flow of traffic. That's the tricky part about parallel parking; when to do it and how not to interfere with cars. But there is also a last chance clause; if a car sees you from a good distance away they should make every effort to stop, even if you are blocking their way. If the accident was avoidable, the car striking the car in a parking manuver can also be held liable.

In the motion of backing into a parking spot and another car comes and tries to pull forward into the spot next to me but turns wide and i end up tapping the drivers side fender whose fault is it?

From the explanation given in the discussion area - it would unfortunately appear as if both drivers were at fault. The backing driver for not being aware of his surroundings, and the other driver for failing to yield to the backing car when he saw that the backing car was already in motion.


Who is at fault when you are backing out of a parking space and another car makes a left hand turn into the parking lot behind your car after you begun to back out?

Most of the time this will be a 50/50. If there is Video evedence or a witness that says one or other car was being careless or driving to fast or there is other evedence that could change. One of the things to look at is did the backing car back into the side of the other car or did the backing vehical get hit in the side and how far down the side? If you have evedence of this you might convince the judge and your insurance company who was "At Fault"
