Hi. This is what I found on a legal website: When one car is backing out of a parking space that car driver is supposed to look for cars before reversing. Since the car backing up was moving in reverse at the time of the crash, it will usually be at fault for the accident. On the other hand, the car moving forward has the right of way so that car usually will not be at fault unless there is evidence that driver was either not paying attention or was speeding. If so, then both drivers may have some fault.
