Who is at fault if a car zooms into traffic from a parked position and hits another car?
Anytime a car is entering traffic from a parked position, it is that driver's responsibility to make sure that the lane is clear before moving into traffic. The driver of the car entering traffic would be at fault.
What is the difference between incoming and oncoming?
The difference between incoming and oncoming is in their definition. Incoming simply means coming in while oncoming means approaching or moving towards.
How do you judge gaps in traffic?
First, you need to know how fast the oncoming traffic is going. Obviously if traffic is moving slowly, you don't need a large gap. If traffic is moving fast, you need a larger gap. Secondly, you should know how long it will take you to speed up to the speed limit. Finally, if you are not sure if you can make it in a gap, don't try to. There will be another gap. The people who are behind you will wait. Be safe, be smart.
Do vehicle code points from a traffic ticket in Pennsylvania transfer to your Maryland driving record?

Who is at fault if driver a waiting to make left hand turn does not yield to ongoing traffic and car b hits back end o f car who and was a busy street with no lights?
It depends on what you mean by 'ongoing'. If you are waiting to make a left, the traffic moving in the opposite direction is called the oncoming traffic. If you did not yield to the oncoming traffic, or did not wait for it to clear the intersection before you turned, then you are at fault for the accident. If you are waiting to make a left and a car moving the same direction as you are facing hits you, then the car that hit you is at fault IF you were stopped and/or signaling that you were turning left. When making a left turn from the left lane, cars on your side of the road are supposed to pass your car in the lane to the right of you; if you are making a left from the only lane, the cars behind you are supposed to stop and wait for you to make the turn.

When entering a highway from an On Ramp can a car from the rear merge into the highway before the first car has a chance to merge into moving traffic?
Cars in the REAR on an On Ramp should NOT try to merge into moving traffic BEFORE the cars in front have merged into the traffic flow. The moving traffic has first right of way, and the first car entering a highway from an On Ramp has right of way BEFORE all other cars who are also entering the highway from the On Ramp. When motorists from behind try to enter a highway before motorists in front, the motorists from behind create additional obstacles to the first car trying to merge into existing traffic. Each driver on the On Ramp MUST wait his / her turn to merge into traffic, without obstructing another driver at the front of the line.
What is the meaning of traffic counter flow?
Traffic moving the opposite direction of most other traffic

When making a turn do not have the steering wheel turned in the direction of the turn before beginning the turning maneuver.?
This is good advice for teaching beginning drivers about turns. If the wheel is turned before the car is moving, most likely the vehicle will not have enough room to turn properly. Also, if you have the wheel turned while you are waiting for traffic to clear and you are rear ended, you will get pushed head-on into oncoming traffic.
