Need Advice as to who is at fault?

[tweater]

Yun din na-isip ko e na pwede ko pala gawin sa iba yan para peperahan ko lang as long as sa side ngother vehicle ang tinamaan. LOL

Ang explanation kasi ni Police officer is kasalanan ko daw kasi sa side ng kotse ko ang tinamaan (which is rear side na tabi ng compartment). Kasalanan ng truck yun if nabangga niya ang likod mismo ng vehicle. Haaay charge to experience na lang talaga to. Ang hindi ko matanggap bakit 14K ang hinihingi sa akin para sa repair ng bumper niya. Hindi ako pumayag. Napakaliit ng damage nung bumper niya. If in case po ba na hindi kami magkasundo ng settlement, may possibility ba na he can file a case in reference to vehicle damage?

I got into a car accident with a dump truck last week and the Police officer find me at fault. It was a very traffic day due to a stalled vehicle in the outer lane. The only way to pass is to switch lane. It was a stop and go situation and I decided to switch lane only to find out that my left rear side got hit.

Gumawa ako ng sarili kung sketch sa nangyaring accident at since stop and go yun, I was thinking na wala talagang problema yun kasi if bigayan lang, lamang na ako kasi most of my car's body is inside the inner lane na. Ang sabi ng police officer is switching lane daw kasi ako dapat hintayin kung maging clear ang kabilang lane. My thought was, kelan pa magiging clear yun e bumper to bumper ang situation so ang iniisip ko talaga is bigayan na lang. Anong thoughts niyo dito? Need help if you can provide sana any legal basis, I would really appreciate it. Thank you talaga sa makakatulong.

Tingin ko mali ka nga. Yung laki ng trak, malamang hindi sya umuusad at pinagbigyan ka na nyan, pero tantya ko kulang ang estima mo sa paglipat ng lane kaya ikaw ang sumagi sa kanya.

Malalaman natin yan sa picture ng banggaan ninyo at yung kaskas sa likod ng oto mo kung papaano. Kung pa-atras ang kaskas, ikaw ang mali, kung pa-abante naman, umaandar sya at sya ang nakabundol sa iyo.

Patingin nga ng picture na meron ka para mahusgahan ang ginawa ninyo

Hmmm, a police report should not state who is at fault but rather present itself as an objective description/drawing of the situation/incident. The police cannot make the judgment.

Only a judge, in a civil or criminal case, can definitely rule on who is at fault or not.

Parang ganito boss. Nakakabad trip nga nung tumawag yung repair shop tapos sabi 14K daw lahat. Halatang pinresyohan ng mahal para kumita ng malaki sa insurance samantalang ang damage lang naman medyo na-yupi ang bumper (same nung chrome bumper sa pic pero violet yung sa kanila).

Honestly boss, hindi ko na kinuhanan ng picture kasi schedule for over-all body repair at repaint na tong kotse ko prior to the accident. Nadagdagan lang ng damage. Naisip ko wag na magclaim ng Own Damage kasi pahirapan mag-claim at yun nga plano ko na i-overall. Pati ang kabilang party wala din picture kasi nung sinukat ng Police ang distance at ginawan ng drawing, pinapunta na kami agad sa precinct.

Ayan na naenlighten na yung TS, sana wala nang manggugulo at pagpipilitan na tama lang na sumingit basta mauna ka magpasok ng nguso sa katabing lane.

Entering a Roadway from Driveways, Alleys and Parked Position

"A driver entering a road from a parked position, parking lot, shopping area, alley or private drive should yield to motor vehicles approaching on the road to be entered and to pedestrians on the sidewalk.

In the example to the left, the grey car yields to the blue car."

From Yielding the Right of Way | SeniorDriving.AAA.com

That's the nearest to your situation where a reference is available.

You're behind a stalled truck. Thus, you're coming from a "parked" position. You must yield.

Sir if may insurance ka... use it! Unless may tinatago ka on your part. Kaya po tayo may insurance is for ganyang situation. It defeats the purpose kasi if youll pay the truck driver 14k. Actually casa estimates higher than that... swerte ka pa dahil di naman sya casa maintain. If i remember correctly, umabot ng 20k+ yun estimate sa rear bumper ko nung binunggo ako ng truck before. Let your insurance handle this kind of situation. Less hassle and stress on your part. Just my 2 cents...

i agree w/ bro synth007. since you're authorized to use the car, dapat hindi ka pahirapan nuong insurance provider niyo

kung ganyan lang din trato sa iyo ng insurer niyo, lumipat na kayo ng insurance company asap

Sir baludoy, in addition

kaya merong "participation payment" either nakabangga ka or nabangga ka, babayaran lang po yung certain max amount na naka-indicate sa policy sa damaged cost.

kung meron hidden issues, 2 lang po yan, either yung sasakyan ay hindi insured or, the violation rules ng insurance ay nalabag extremely, (naka-inom)

Hahahah gusto ko yun flashing ng ilaw... guilty enough, ginagawa ko yun pangsenyas na ako uuna.

At least there's a visual notice...

[dr. d]

ah! the signal light...
if you think you have to use it, it means you have no right of way.
and using the signal light does not grant you any rights.. you still have no right of way. you still have to wait.

and oh yes... a single number on your plate grants you god-mode... you can do anything without fear of apprehension.. heh heh.. unfortunately, the bent fender you acquire is just as expensive as in non-god-mode..

Guys question lang dn since eto na rin ang pinaguusapan. What if mabilisan talaga yung pangyayari, nakapasok kagad si ts tapos hindi pala pumayag si truck( or any other vehicle) then hindi nakapag preno at nabangga yung rear ni ts, si truck na ba yung may kasalanan non?

[leodawesome]

^ Si TS pa din nag-initiate eh so sya padin may kasalanan. Kaya nga meron right of way in the first place, so that maiiwasan yung mga 'accidents'. Mahirap iprove na kasalanan nung bumangga sa likod, unless nga may video evidence ka or inamin nung nakabangga na sya may kasalanan.

it happened to me.. ang sabi ko, "ang bilis-bilis mo.. ni hindi mo 'ko binigyan ng pagkakataong mag-brake."
fortunately, the investigator agreed with me.
