Without some very unusual circumstances, it's going to be the car that read-ended the stopped car. There are very few good reasons for running in to the back of a stopped car.

Who is at fault where a stopped car hits the car behind it while both are waiting to turn left?

A stopped car shouldn't hit anything because it's not moving. If a car hits the car behind it must have been in reverse and front ended the vehicle. In that case the car that front ended the vehicle is at fault.


Who is at fault when you are backing out of a parking lot space and another vehicle is about to park right next to you?

It is not rare to be in this particular situation. Really, you are not at fault, but you still shouldn't get angry at the other vechicle's driver.Another View: Not enough information is given in the question. If the other car was stopped and waiting for you to back out and YOU ran into THEM, YOU are at fault.If both cars were in simultaneous motion (they were pulling in while you were backing out) BOTH parties are at fault. One for not yielding and the other for backing without caution.

Who is at fault if you hit a pedestian on green light?

Both of you ! The pedestrian is at fault for not obeying the traffic signals and you are at fault for not paying enough attention to what's around you while driving. A green light is not an automatic right to proceed - it's a priority signal !


Who is at fault if the driver from behind hits your rear bumper while waiting at a fast food drive through parking lot?

This depends on the situation, but if you were stationary, not moving and he hit you, he would be at fault. In most cases if the other motorist hits you from behind it is his fault, as you must maintain full control of your vehicle at all times, and if he hit you from behind, that was not the case.


Who is at fault if you hit a car that is backing out of a parking spot while you are leaving the parking lot?

Usually the driver of the vehicle at the rear, as he/she should be paying attention to what is ahead of them. If you saw him/her reversing out you should have stopped and waited. If you did and were stationary, then the person reversing out is at fault, but you would need witnesses to prove it.
