It feels like you were right from the beginning and pointed the right points from the act and fault determination rule.

Thank you!
She couldn't open the video, but she wrote me that she made a decision based on video snapshots. No detailed explanations. …

Re: Please help find who's fault is this (dash cam video) And let's not to talk with "what if" statements, like if there are animal on the intersection, or ambulance. You can't judge the volume level by the recording. I would definitely hear the ambulance sound. Red truck wouldn't drive at front of amb…
Re: Please help find who's fault is this (dash cam video) I have sent the video to my driving teacher without making my point of view. He told me that the other driver is at fault for sure, but insurance company can give 50-50 because of the fact that I didn't pay attention. He told that when the driver enters o…
Re: Please help find who's fault is this (dash cam video) ynotp wrote:$380 per month with a clean record? That's high. It would make sense if you are under 25 with limited experience. I'd budget for a couple hundred extra dollars depending on your fault level and if you are eventually issued a ticket by the p…

Re: Please help find who's fault is this (dash cam video) Thanks highwaystar,
Very useful. Not sure if I'll dispute. I'll accept even 50-50 case, because I understand that I could avoid the accident if I waited intersection to get completely clear.
In case of 100-0 in her favor will be weird, I'll escalate, bu…
Re: Please help find who's fault is this (dash cam video) When police usually send a traffic ticket? They didn't tell me anything when I was reporting collision.
And what about insurance company. How long does it take and how they notify? My insurance agent, doesn't respond to my emails and phones for already 2…
Re: Please help find who's fault is this (dash cam video) I'm not sure when it goes to court. But I've read somewhere that there are 3 places that you can escalate if you are not satisfied with result. And I don't have clear understanding of the process.

Re: Please help find who's fault is this (dash cam video) I'm sorry for any misunderstanding. This was supposed to be discussion and it should be ok to have different opinions. There is no point to go into details with you, because each of us has his own point of view. And I accept that I can be wrong.

Re: Please help find who's fault is this (dash cam video) I just mentioned Fault Determination Rules. Generally I accept that both of us at fault and need to be careful. What I care is the legal stuff. I'm sure there is no place for self interpretation of law. I maybe wrong. I can't wait a response from insuran…
Re: Please help find who's fault is this (dash cam video) I have found legal Fault Determination Rules

Check the point 15 (2). I guess it should be 100% her fault according to this document.

Here is highway traffic act http://www.e-laws.gov.on.ca/html/statut ... 0h08_f.htm, where I have located 144 and I don't see anything about waiting to clear. What I see is

Re: Please help find who's fault is this (dash cam video) One more thing. If you see the other car on dash cam video, trust me from drivers perspective it is not that obvious. You look one moment left, the car wasn't in intersection. You look right, then you look back red car blocking the view. And my position i…
Re: Please help find who's fault is this (dash cam video) Thanks guy. I feel great support with your responses, even if I'm wrong I want to get some understanding.

I sent the …
