My son was trying to find a parking space at Walmart. As he passed an occupied space, the car in it pulled forward leaving the space empty. He checked his mirrors, looked over his shoulder and began backing up to enter the space. A car on the opposite side of the asile was backed into its spot with the front of the car facing the asile. As my son backed up, this car pulled forward and the two collied. My son's car was not damaged but the other car was dented above the front wheel well on the passengers side. The damaged car owner insisted it was my sons fault. My son gave our insurance information, did not admit fault, but apologized. The police were not called. The damaged car owner called my husband and said he is getting estimates for us to pay for the damages. When my son came home and explained the accident, we werent sure it was his fault, or at least not all his fault. Did the other car have the responsiblity to look both ways before pulling out? We just need to know if we have to pay or should pay for all or part of the repair. Thank you.
