Who is at fault when you are making a left hand turn and an on coming traffic hits you in the rear side of the car?
It depends on if you are making a left turn at the intersection with a green arrow or not. Oncoming traffic always has the right of way unless at an intersection with a green arrow/red light.
I have always been told that the left turning vehicle is chargeable (At Fault)if while turning there is an accident. In other words you are indefensible on this because to cross over an opposing traffic pattern as in a left turn, you must yield under all circumstances. The same thing applies to rear end accidents. If you rear-end someone, you are indefensible. It is always your fault. The rationale in both scenarios is that the left turner and the one behind have to wait, have to see, yield to everything and only when clear can they proceed.
It depends. I made a left turn at an intersection after my light (w/out arrow) turned red and an oncoming car did not stop. Because the other car had ran the red light he was at fault and his insurance paid for my damages. This was in California.
What else can I help you with?
Who is at fault in left hand turn accident?
It will likely be the person making the left turn who is at fault. It is the turning driver's responsibility to make certain that the turning maneuver can be completed in a safe manner without interference with opposing traffic. WHile the other driver who hit you MAY have contributed to the accident, it was the turning driver that precipitated it.
Who has the right of way at a green light - a person making a right with a yield sign or a person making a left from the opposite side of the road?

If you are in the left hand turn lane and someone crosses over 2 lanes of traffic and hits you in the lane whose at fault?
It really depends on where they hit you and if you were moving. For example if you are stopped in the left hand lane waiting to turn (legally) and a car hits you, it is their fault. However if you are somewhere you are not supposed to be and they hit you, it is your fault for being there. It all comes down to the right of way and who has it.
Who is at fault if driver a waiting to make left hand turn does not yield to ongoing traffic and car b hits back end o f car who and was a busy street with no lights?
It depends on what you mean by 'ongoing'. If you are waiting to make a left, the traffic moving in the opposite direction is called the oncoming traffic. If you did not yield to the oncoming traffic, or did not wait for it to clear the intersection before you turned, then you are at fault for the accident. If you are waiting to make a left and a car moving the same direction as you are facing hits you, then the car that hit you is at fault IF you were stopped and/or signaling that you were turning left. When making a left turn from the left lane, cars on your side of the road are supposed to pass your car in the lane to the right of you; if you are making a left from the only lane, the cars behind you are supposed to stop and wait for you to make the turn.

Pulled two to three feet out of stall going forward saw car coming stopped and waited other car hit you are you at fault because you were in lane of traffic in parking lot?
The question is missing the information required to answer. How close was the approaching car when you saw him and stopped in his lane of travel? If your move was sudden and there was not sufficient time for him to stop or avoid you, then YOU are at fault. On the other hand - if the approaching car was sufficiently far enough away for them to have seen you and either stopped or avoided you, then THEY are at faoult. For the last secenario - you better have a witness to confirm your version of the situation.
