This depends upon where you were struck exactly. Did they hit you on the rear end, side, or front? Damages tell alot about an accident and the fault determination. If you were rear-ended on the ramp then the other party is generally 100% At Fault, unless you were negligent and stopped very suddenly instead of continuing with the flow of traffic. This should be discussed with police and your insurer in this case. I may be reading the question wrong, but I think you mean one vehicle was entering the highway from the onramp and the other was already on the highway. In this case, there is (almost) no doubt that the merging driver is at fault.

∙ 13y agoIF the car travelling in the outside lane crossed into the right lane striking the vehicle entering the roadway (AND IT CAN BE PROVED) then the car that changed lanes would be at fault. If no ticket was given, turn the whole matter over to your insurance company and let them handle it.

When turning right on a four lane unmarked road I know you are supposed to go to the curb at first but which lane should you end up in?
From the rightmost lane a right turn should end in the rightmost lane. If more than one lane permits a right turn then it should end in the corresponding lane from the right. Just imagine as if the turn was on a curved road linking the two roads (this also applies for left turns) with a one to one lane correspondence between the turning lanes of the road you are on and the ending lanes in the road you end up in, assuming that there is moving traffic in all of the turn lanes that you must not collide with during the turn.
Does right hand turn lane yield to oncoming left turn traffic onto a highway on ramp if no yield sign present for right hand turners.?
If you have a red light and left turners have a green light then yes. Otherwise the general rule is those turning left yield to those turning right.
Who is at fault if you were traveling on a rural two lane road and a car that was passing you at high speed hit your front end while you were turning left into a driveway?
If it hits on the left side of your car, obviously your positioning on the road is wrong.Another VIew: Other car speeding or not, it is the car that turned into the path of the oncoming traffic that is at fault. You were either inattentive, or if youir depth and speed perception of moving traffic is THAT bad, you ought not to be driving.

Who is at fault in a shopping mall parking lot where you are driving forward through the lanes turning left into the drive lane when a car coming from your right hits your right rear end of the ca?
It depends if you pulled out without looking and/or too quickly so as to cut off the car on your right it's your fault. If you were moving very slow and they didnt see you and hit you its their fault. Although.. It is your responsibility as the car NOT in the driving lane to yield to the car IN the driving lane.
Who is at fault if you sideswiped a vehicle while turning left and the vehicle was on the inside?
You, almost certainly, but possibly them: In a left-hand drive (right side of the road) country, you should not be turning left unless you are in the furtherest inner lanes. However, you should also not be going straight from an inner lane. Thus, if the lane you were in was marked as a left-turning lane, they are at fault; anything else, you will still receive your fair share of blame. In a right-hand drive (left side of the road) country, exactly how you manage to turn left and hit someone on a lane inside of you is beyond me, but you will be at fault. This applies even if they were approaching from a different branch of the road: a straight travelling vehicle has first priority, and after this comes right-turning traffic. You should not have turned until the path was and would have been completely clear as you turned.
