Is Reversing Always Fully Liable in All Situations?
1 Answers
Here are the relevant materials regarding whether reversing is always fully liable: I. The following specific situations where reversing is not liable: 1. If the traffic accident is caused by the fault of the other party, no liability is assumed. 2. If neither party is at fault for causing the traffic accident, it is considered a traffic accident, and neither party is liable. 3. If one party intentionally causes a road traffic accident, the other party is not liable. II. Relevant legal provisions: According to Article 60 of the "Road Traffic Accident Handling Procedures": The traffic management department of the public security organ shall determine the liability of the parties based on the role of their actions in causing the road traffic accident and the severity of their faults. 1. If a road traffic accident is caused by the fault of one party, that party shall bear full liability; 2. If a road traffic accident is caused by the fault of two or more parties, the liability shall be divided into primary, equal, and secondary responsibilities based on the role of their actions in causing the accident and the severity of their faults; 3. If none of the parties is at fault for causing the road traffic accident, it is considered a traffic accident, and none of the parties is liable. If one party intentionally causes a road traffic accident, the other party is not liable. III. Situations where reversing is not fully liable: If the accident occurs while the vehicle owner is reversing without violating traffic rules, the determination of liability depends on the specific circumstances. The traffic police will make an accident liability determination and issue an accident report. The vehicle owner is not necessarily fully liable. The owner can also provide evidence such as dashcam footage to allow the traffic police to assign primary and secondary liability between the two vehicles.
