You are simply because you have more responsibility when backing up to make sure it it clear.I found this out when backing out of driveway(mine) and someone turning in hit me.The insurance paid (we both had the same company) but cancelled my insurance.Alfa
The guy that is walking.
The person backing out. If you were in the lane/road behind them they needed to use caution when backing out.
Whoever the police report charges with the accident.
If they backed into you, it's their fault. Failure to yield.
both because ur not quick enough ;) the other guy is thick cos he drove into you!! So more his fault!!
The person backing out due to the other car having the right-of-way.
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.
The two insurance companies are going to bicker back and forth about this. The speeding car certainly shares in the fault. The person backing out might, as well, if they were inattentive.
it is both of their faults because the person who was backing up should have look more carefully and the the other car should check where they are going
In general, the driver who is backing is considered to be at fault.
The driver of the parking car is at fault... he shd allways keep a man to inform him about danger, whenever backing in such a speedy street....
The backing vehicle is at fault. We are always supposed to look to ensure the path is clear before placing our vehicle in motion.
