Who is at fault when someone backs into an illegally parked car? |
[Edit] |
Answer
The driver is responsible for the full damages. Your car is motionless. A prudent driver driving reasonably should look into a rear view mirror before backing up. In this case your illegal parking did NOT contribute to the negligence of the driver.
