Who is at fault if you have entered the intersection from the stop sign and the other car hits you after you are almost through the intersection?

The car who hit you is At Fault , however if you did not have your brakes applied , and if having them applied would have prevented you from hitting the car ahead of you , you would be partly to blame for hitting the car ahead of you. That issue depends on the speed that the other car hit you and the distance you were from the car ahead of you

The only time that works is when all vehicles are stopped and the last vehicle hits the one ahead of it and so on down the line because it was hit by something.

If the second driver had a stop sign it would be his fault.

Who is at fault if you were turning left and someone then entered the roadway and hit you?
If it was an open intersection, the driver turning left is at fault. If there is a traffic signal, stop sign or one way street involved, it could be either driver, depending on circumstances.
Whose fault is it if the other driver claims you pulled out on him while he was on the main road but you looked before you turned out and didn't see him and you only heard his brakes for one second?
Are you hoping to be able to go to court and say "WikiAnswers says it wasn't my fault."? No such luck. If he was on the main road and you entered from a side road or driveway, it's almost certainly your fault whether you saw him or not, unless you were a significant distance from the intersection before the collision.
Who is at fault if someone drives through an intersection and hits a vehicle?
It depends on what kind of intersection is is and directions the cars were coming. The rules of the road determine who has the right of way. However, the person with the "last clear chance" to avoid a collision is almost always the one found to be "at fault." You can't simply crash into someone because they're breaking the law, if you can avoid it. For example: If you have the right-of-way to make a left hand turn in that intersection and person hits you, then it's their fault. If you have the green light to go straight through and the other car is making a left hand turn in the intersection (that car is suppose to wait for you to go through) then it's their fault. Usually the police are brought into it and they can often determine whose fault it was. However, the courts may ultimately decide liability, based upon the facts put into evidence, so get names of any witnesses and take pictures if you think it's not your fault.
At an intersection where there is a two way stop who would be at fault in an accident if the car that was required to stop and a car crossing that is not required to stop collide in the intersection?
It would be the car that was required to stop. That car should make sure it is clear before going through the intersection.
