The person driving through. If you're backing out then you do not have the right of way.

The driver backing up. Unless you can prove the other car was driving unsafly.
I live in California i was driving through my apartment complex when i was hit in the front driver side corner by a person backing out of a parking spot. Am i at fault?
The greater fault lies with the person backing out of the parking space. You may still be partially at fault for not driving with due care.
If you are backing out of your driveway and are struck by a car in a mobile home park who is at fault?
Check with the local police but I've had it where people backing a car out of a shop into a private parking lot get hit by someone driving through (too fast even) and the person who is in reverse is always at fault. Might be different in some areas but in my area this is how it goes.

While backing out of a parking space in a school parking lot your son hit another car that was moving through the parking lot Are parking lot accidents no-fault your state is Missouri?
I do not feel the the son was at faught because If the tale-end of the car was totally out into the intersection the other driver was to yield to him, especially if passing the son driver was going to cause the driver to go into another lane.
Who is at fault when a person backing out of a parking spot backs into another car going the wrong way in a one-way parking lot?
Both of you are at fault to a degree. Depending on who primarily had the right of way, which in this case sounds like the person not in his or her parking space their insurance will actually be responsible for any damages that resulted. We are disputing this situation now. The insurance company says it was both parties fault. My question is, If I am traveling the interstate in the wrong direction and hit someone is it partialy their fault because they should have seen me coming? Wrong way mean "WRONG". I went through this exact thing, when a snowplow went up the wrong way in a marked one-way part of the parking lot row and hit my car as I was backing out. I thought for sure he would be held responsible. I wasn't expecting a truck from that direction. In the end, I was found to be at fault for backing out into him.
How do you adjust parking brake on 2002 Chevy Tahoe?
do you have 4 wheel disc !!! if so look on the backing plate of the rear axel it adjusts like drum brakes through a hole in the plate
Who is at fault in an accident where a vehicle backing out of a parking spot strikes a vehicle that is speeding through the parking lot?
It depends. Parking lots are private property so the usual rules of the road don't apply. In some states it is 50-50 as far as who's at fault, because both drivers have a responsibility to watch for other drivers. Do not admit fault and let the insurance companies handle it.
