My truck was parked in front of a house in Washington State when it was hit by a woman backing out of her driveway. Initially she accepted full responsibility and we entered into a good faith agreement that she would pay for repairs. She made a partial payment but now claims I am equally at fault because I was parked illegally. This is a rural area with no posted parking restrictions. I was parked further from her driveway than I would have been in a typical shopping center parking lot. I had been parking in this spot for a couple of mornings a week for at least two months with no incident. She had numerous ways to avoid the accident, including letting me know I was inconveniencing her, but she chose none of them. I would like to take her to small claims court but want to know if her claim of my responsibility is true. Please help
