2 cars parked in lot both back out at the same time and collide whose fault?

Question

car a' rear bumper on driver's side hits car b rear quarter

panel above tire on passenger side

Answer 1

I bet it would be determined equally both cars' faults. Neither of the cars were looking where they were going, and each car owner will most likely have to fix their own damages.

Answer 2

unless there's some special law covering that situation in your locality, both drivers are at fault & neither responsible for damage to the other vehicle.
