The owner of the illegally parked vehicle may be ticketed, but the "at fault" driver is responsible for the damages to the parked vehicle.
It is almost impossible to assign fault to a parked car, even if it is illegally parked.
It is not legal to cover or obscure reflectors on a car parked on a public street anywhere in North America.
As long as the neighbour is parked legally on the opposite side of the street and is not in conflict with any signs prohibiting it, and has not narrowed the road width to a point that renders the driveway un-useable, he may park there.
If you are driving a car or have it parked on a public street or parking lot then it must have insurance
You can't do this.
If you're parking in their property e.g.: Their own driveway, garage, or a designated area which is part of their property, then yes most likely it's trespassing when you park there. However, if you park at a street which is a public street, then the only restrictions that apply are those of the local government (the state, city, town .. etc). Someone doesn't have any legal support to ask someone to not park at a public parking because it's in front of there house. Out of courtesy, however, most people don't do it. But, again, it's totally legal and as long as it's public parking (street) you can park wherever you want following the rules of parking set by the government.
You can park your vehicle on your property with no insurance. HOWEVER, in some cities you must have a current license plate on your vehicle for it to be parked in the driveway and to have a current plate, you are required to have insurance. The issue here is the driveway and what can be seen from the street. Unlicensed vehicles in a driveway could be viewed as a "junkyard", "car lot" etc
You have no claim against the other car's owner ! It's up to you to make sure your way is clear when reversing. If the lighting was that bad, you should have had someone guide you out of the driveway. The lesson to learn is - reverse into your driveway - then you'll never need to reverse onto the road !
Street racing: The act of racing two or more automobiles (or motorcycles)on a public street. In most cases illegally and without authorization.
If the vehicle is parked on a public street, you need a tag. If it is on private property you don't.
