What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? MD
This is in a low speed road with parking on both sides and one lane of traffic in each direction.
I was making a U-turn at a break in the median. I did not have my signal on. To make the u-turn I slowed down and went slightly right before initiating the U-turn to help make a little more space (not super wide, did not leave my lane). The other driver was behind me and thought I was turning right. She went towards the left to pass around my car and by the time she realized I was making a U-turn it was too late to stop in time.
Who is at fault? I will admit I didnt have my signal on but suspect the lady did not leave adequate space and was also too impatient for me to complete my move as she went around my left side instead of breaking and waiting for me to be out of the way.
I figured I would just give an accurate statement and let the insurance company decide who is at fault.
Any in site is greatly appreciated!
