What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Calif.
I drive an SUV Jeep Cherokee which sits high up. I parked at 10:00 at night, in the last metered parking spot, on a major blvd. there was a red curb zone in back of me. A man parked behind me, so close as to squeeze in as not to hang out into the intersection. He was unloading his car , which was very low to the ground. With him parking so close to me, when I looked out of the rear view mirror, as well as the back window, I saw no one. And of course it was dark. I backed up into his car, with my Jeep going partially over his hood, & my tailpipe going into his car making a half moon image. There was no damage to my Jeep. Am I completely at fault if he was parked illegally in a red zone, and within 2 feet from me??
I appreciate feedback on this situation. Berdenia Broes
