Who is at fault when a parked car in parking lot is hit?
depends on whether or not the car is parked well. if the car is parked properly, in the right spot then it should be the car that hit it that is at fault.
the car changing lanes, so the left.
By Yisoonshin - "I thought that the car on the right would be at fault, because since the left lane is merging, the right car should go faster or slower to allow room for the car in the left lane. It's not like you can stop right there. But usually the right lane merges into the left, or at least I thought they do.
By Perau - nope, that's not how it works. the car on that lane has the rightaway to go at whatever speed they like. The car on the left has to wait and make sure it is clear for them to merge.

Can you resolve a minor car accident without going through insurance?
That is usually up to you and the other party involved (if any), and it will highly depend on the extent of the damage. The worse the damage, the more likely you and/or any other party will be legally required to report. Generally, if an accident is multi-party, prudence dictates reporting: in the event one party decides to file claims or legal action later on.
The option to fix the results of an accident yourself is more likely to be available if the accident is single-party (meaning the accident involved hitting a stationary object). Some may wish to employ this option for minor damage because either the cost to repair is too close or even under a deductible or because reporting such an incident can result in increased premiums.
