What lights let pedestrian know car is backing up?

Pedestrian accidents are very common in today's world. Pedestrian accidents usually occur at intersections and are commonly caused by a backing truck or car.

If the person backing out of the space had not seen a pedestrian walking the "wrong way" it would be the fault of the driver of the car backing out....... So it is the fault of the person backing out. They did not look to make sure it was safe to do so.

what is a "pedestrian car"

Pedestrians have the right of way. Unless you can prove he/she was grosely negligent or did it on purpose then you are at fault. If you are backing down on your private driveway and a neighbor who walks behind your car on your private driveway is hit and falls down who is at fault? The neighbor pedestrian has been drinking, unstable on his feet was standing in his driveway at his car then suddenly is behind my vehicle.

On an average car, there are high and low beam lights for night driving, clearance lights on the front and back, front and rear turn signals, and back-up lights used when backing up.

"Back up lights" are the same as reverse lights. Lights that "turn on" when vehicle is put into reverse gear to illuminate the rear of the car so you can see when backing up.

In most states, it doesn't matter the reason a driver struck a pedestrian or if the pedestrian saw the vehicle prior to being in a position to be struck--the pedestrian always has the right-of-way so the driver is always at-fault.

the pedestrian has the right of way

your car will not start, lights wont turn on, ect

Actually, I suppose that pedestrians are more vulnerable to danger and injury, than a driver in a protective car. And also, a driver in the car could injure a pedestrian, but the pedestrian can't injure you. However, at traffic lights you have you're own fair turn to cross the intersection and travel across.

The person backing out due to the other car having the right-of-way.

Depends whose at fault..

The police officer informed him that the pavement was intended for pedestrian use and was not a place to park his car.

so that you know a car is driving at you, as opposed to away

This car (as you probably know) has 5 fuse panels. Which lights are out?

when i play music in my car the lights dimm i wanted to know if a capacitor would stop that problem

Car lights get power from the batterie in the car, or in some cars oil gives car lights power.

Generally, the person backing out is at fault. If you are both backing out you're probably both at fault and will probably share the cost of repair, with each repairing their own. yes because you were backing out and they hit your car its their fault!!!!!!! yes because you were backing out and they hit your car its their fault!!!!!!!

Think about this your are backing up, and your neighbors little boy is playing in your yard, and he isn't supposed to be in your yard and you hit him, (a) did you see him? can you hit him because he is not supposed to be there? We are responsible to know what is behind us and be aware of where our car is going. Two wrongs do not make it right. I think you are responsible for hitting a car that is behind you when your are backing up.

starts slow, lights dim on starting.

the lights come on to let you know that your car is locked

No. If you were at a stop sign, then you would have the right of way over the car.

The car in motion is ALWAYS at fault when it hits a stationary vehicle.

The pedestrian walk was clearly marked by the white lines. The car mowed down the pedestrian where he stood. A pedestrian has the right of way when crossing the street. (noun - walker) His writing grew less interesting, and many soon found it stale and pedestrian. (adjective - dull)
