You can park your vehicle on your property with no insurance. HOWEVER, in some cities you must have a current license plate on your vehicle for it to be parked in the driveway and to have a current plate, you are required to have insurance. The issue here is the driveway and what can be seen from the street. Unlicensed vehicles in a driveway could be viewed as a "junkyard", "car lot" etc
Rear-end crashes are the most common type of collisions because?
People tend to not pay attention in the car and don't hit the brakes fast enough. Other crashes tend to take less time to react.
This depends on many factors, including the ability of the other person to pay for your damages. Some insurance policies will not require you to pay a deductible. Others will. If the other person can pay for the damages, you and your insurance will not have to pay.

Your car was hit while backing out of parking space?
The car which is driving straight into the parking lot has the right of entery into the parking space. When you are backing out your vehicle than you need to make sure that there is no vehicle which is comming in and whether it is safe. If you have already backed out more than 50%, than the car comming in should wait till you clear out .
As per the state prevalant laws it would differ from state to state. However, each one will have to claim for the damage of the vehicle under your own policy and if there is any bodily injury than you can sue the opposite driver. However, the award for property damage and injury would be paid in porpotion to the fault fixed.

Survivable speed for a car accident?
this is a physics question. there is no straight answer. in theory one could survive a car accident at 300 miles per hour.
consider this. you can die going 20 if you arent buckled but survive a high speed car accident. what is happening here?
in a collision, take an egg for example, the energy is transfered to something else. when an egg drops from a ceiling and hits a concrete floor, it breaks. so would you. if you can slow the egg down and increase the contact time it has with the ground during the collision, then you can save the egg. you are the egg. and you want to know the survivable speed for a car accident. as far as physics go, any speed. but if you want to know for your typical midsize sedan and a front end collision into a solid object, i wouldn't push 120. might hurt. strongly don't advise either unless you are trained, have safety equipment, on a closed track, and are not intending to crash. this is why there are speed limits obviously. cars have airbags to increase the impulse of the crash because human bodies don't like instantaneous change in motion.
other elements to be considered is the orientation of the collision or the elements that may become projectiles. in an accident many things are unpredictable. many people die every day because of accidents. some unfortunatly because of poor engineering and some as a result of bad luck.
i hope this helped. this is more informative then straight answer. as always, be safe and don't find this as an excuse to drive fast or recklessly.

There are also no fault accidents like ice, hydroplaing, inproplly marked curbs, or the sun being in ones eyes can be considered as a no fault there for the accident is handles as no fault and insurance clams will be handled indivtually
It is the 'fault' of the person who opened the door into the stream of traffic. In order to 'beat' the charge they would have to show that the operator of the vehicle intentionally swerved to hit the door.
To tell you the truth, You both are at fault. If you go to court, usually they will tell you that it's the person that didn't have the right - of - way's fault.
What happens if you reach the Personal Injury Liability limits from a car accident?
I was hit on September 1st 2009 by someone who ran a red light. It took until Tuesday October 13th for her insurance to finally accept 100% liability. My truck took roughly 7,000 dollars in damages and I have been in a rental car since September 6th.
I have had an X-Ray, MRI, six weeks of physical therapy(3x a week), and started a series of three injections in my back over six weeks. The MRI revealed I had two freshly torn disc. I have had a previous back injury from 2004 that required surgery(2005) and the accident has also inflamed that area.
I have a lawyer and he mentioned that my medical could surpass her limit. At the moment we do not know what her limit is through Allstate. He mentioned I may have to claim uninsured motorist on my own insurance. I only have 25,000 coverage.
Here is my question. The lawyer said my case for future medical, pain and suffering, and lost time at work could be worth 75,000 to 100,000. The problem is my current medical/therapy could surpass both her limit and my uninsured limit leaving me with 0 for future bills, pain and suffering.
How can I proceed to get what is owed me if the limits are in fact surpassed?
