Who is at fault in a car accident when you're backing out your parking and hes parked in a no parking zone?
If you strike him - you are at fault. He can be charged with the No Parking violation but YOU are charged with the collision.
Who is liable in a rear end collision if the car that was rear ended was parked?
As long as the parked vehicle is parked properly and not illegally parked in any manner, then the vehicle that rear-ended the parked car is at fault. Now if the parked car is sitting illegally (such as double parked or parked in a no parking zone, etc.) then the parked car is at fault or even both the parked car AND the car that hits it are BOTH at fault.

It depends on the situation. If you stoped short and got rear ended it is your fault. But if you stoped becasue the driver in front of you stoped then it is that persons fault. If you are sitting at a stop light and get rear ended it is there fault. If you are parked in a parking zone and get rear ended it is there fault. Hope this Helped

You should get a ticket for parking illegally and the other drive should be cited for inattentive driving. You are both at fault and should get healthy tickets.

If a car is parked in a loading zone and is hit by another car who is at fault?
It has been suggested that: " Loading zones are usually for delivery trucks or semi trucks delivering goods to the warehouse or store, so if your car was in the loading zone and you were not given permission to unload something you had in the car, then it's your fault for being there in the first place, and if it was just a car going by and it hit you, then they would be at fault as well." However, this ignores the fact that parked cars usually do not "cause" the collision merely by being there, whether or not legal. Otherwise, drivers would be free to collide with anything that gets in the way in violation of any law. No-parking zones are not usually for protecting other drivers from collisions with parked cars, but rather for the convenience of traffic or abutting businesses. Who is at fault if you hit a car at an expired parking meter? Whether a car is legally parked or not, the driver of every other moving vehicle has a positive obligation to pay attention and stop before hitting it! Simply parking illegally will almost never excuse another driver from hitting the parked car. The parking driver has an obligation to the TOWN to obey the signs, but unlike moving violations, has no obligation to other drivers to follow the parking law, with rare exceptions. You can't sue someone for illegally parking on a public street, especially after you crash into them. No obligation, no negligence, no fault, no payment.
What state can you live out of your car legally?

Is it illegal to have your car parked in front of your apartment in city limits if it's broke down?
If your car is parked in a zone where parking is not permitted, then it is illegal. The condition of the car is irrelevant.
When driving home the car in front stoped at the junction and you stoped a safe distance behind them then they reverse to park in a no parking zone and reverse into you who is at fault?
If you are stopped, it is the person whose car backed into you, although this could be up for debate, so hopefully there will be witnesses if not it is a matter for the insurances for a no-fault decision.
