Q: I WAS IN A PACK PACKING LOT AND I PULLED IN FRONT OF AN EMPTY SPOT AT A 45 DEGREE ANGLE LIKE BUT NOT PAST THE SPOT.
STARTED TO BACK UP AND ALL THE SUDDEN I HEARD A CRUNCH NOISE. A YOUNG GIRL WAS TRYING TO PULL IN SAME SPOT.HERFRONT BUMPER BY HER HEAD LIGHT HIT THE VERY LEFT CORNER OF MY MY LEFT REAR BUMPER ON MY 98 CORVETTE WHO IS AT FAULT
A:
Depends on position. If you had stopped and had your turn signal and backup lights on, then it's on her. Also, she should have honked her horn. On the other hand, "I heard a crunch" says that you weren't looking in your side & rearview mirror.What if there had been a pedestrian? So maybe 50/50
Maybe run it through collision on your policy and let your company go afterher.
