Who is at fault if you were hit in a parking lot while parking if the car that hit you were on the wrong side of the parking lot and speeding?
The driver of the car that hit you would be at fault for failing to slow down and avoid hitting you, regardless of which side he or she was on. Parking lots are very dangerous places and people must slow down accordingly.

What happened when your 1992 Accord was hit on the front driver side to cause none of the turn signals to work while hazard and driving lights work power is shown to all lights and it is not a fuse?
It sounds like the ground for the parking/turn signal circuit is bad on the damaged side. You mentioned sufficient power to all lights, I assume this applies to the parking/turn signals too. If this is not the case check the main fuse box for disconnected, pulled-out connections. Hope this helps,
Why does your lights dim when you hit the brakes?

Are spring brakes most effective as a parking or emergency break?
Spring brakes are intended to be used solely as parking brakes. If you're in a desperate situation, you can use them as an emergency brake, but if you're grossing out at 80k and going down Vale Pass, all you're going to accomplish is to burn up your brakes and possibly cause your truck to catch fire... best to just hit the runaway ramp at that point.

"cross grounding" is caused when stuff in the trunk damages a ground wire, or the wrong bulbs are installed... or the sockets where the bulbs plug in are messed up also see if your local library has a free professional shop manual to look at... dave
