Your mum, Steve.
In general, the driver who is backing is considered to be at fault.
Both of you are at fault to a degree. Depending on who primarily had the right of way, which in this case sounds like the person not in his or her parking space their insurance will actually be responsible for any damages that resulted. We are disputing this situation now. The insurance company says it was both parties fault. My question is, If I am traveling the interstate in the wrong direction and hit someone is it partialy their fault because they should have seen me coming? Wrong way mean "WRONG". I went through this exact thing, when a snowplow went up the wrong way in a marked one-way part of the parking lot row and hit my car as I was backing out. I thought for sure he would be held responsible. I wasn't expecting a truck from that direction. In the end, I was found to be at fault for backing out into him.
The vehicle on the wrong side of the road will more than likely be deemed the majority if not all at fault.
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.
its when your going up into the parking garage and you have to stay a certain speed limit or you will be accused of speeding.. i might be wrong. i looked airport zone limit on google.. hope you the best. :)
Don't bump 'nuthin' when you back upThe guy going backwards is always at fault. It don't matter if the driver that hits you is going 50 MPH down a narrow path between cars and babies in strollers and little old ladies. The law is wrong, but well established.
Got a parking ticket for parking on wrong sideStated is: 811.555 ILLEGAL STOPPING STANDING OR PARKING - PARKING FACING WRONG DIRECTIONBut I did some research and found that the code for parking in wrong direction is 811.570 is this worth trying to contest or should I just pay it
if this is a child u didnt deserve it isn't ur fault u did no wrong it is the adults fault
The person who cuts across parking spots, it's illegal. If the parking lot is private property the damage caused in an accident is a civil matter not a legal one in most cases. Traffic laws do not extend to private property.
The fault can either be one of the people. Or the fault can also be the misunderstandings created.
Finding out the answer to these sorts of questions is what courts are for. The answer depends on the details, but from the brief description given, I'm inclined toward the position that it's probably your fault, or a mixture of fault, but with you being the one mostly in the wrong. People who are backing up are supposed to take extra caution.
