Hi all, My wife had an accident parallel parking the other day. It`s with the insurers at the moment but it would be good to have a view of who`s to blame so we`re prepared for anything that they may come back with. First the good news: It was a low speed impact and no one hurt. The Incident: My wife was parallel parking into a space on her side of the road. She was positioned parallel to the car in front of the space and had just started to reverse with the wheel going to full lock. A car travelling from behind overtook her at this point and my wifes front driver wheel and the other cars passenger wheel/arch bumped as the car continued past us. My wifes wheel was knocked out of alignment and the other car has scuffs on their wheel arch/wheel. There was no other damage. Our thoughts are that the other car passed too close (if they even should have passed) and my wife was only just starting the turn manouver, as only my wifes wheel was hit. From what I understand this indicates that they were only about 6 inches away from the car when passing, otherwise they would have hit the front of my wifes car too as this would have been further out in the road if hit. Any thoughts on how the blame might be allocated? Feel free to ask any more about the incident in case I`ve missed anything relevant. Many thanks. I forgot to say that the other cars "REAR" passenger wheel arch/wheel bumped.
