Scene of the Accident
Commentary
Liability in accidents that involve broken down and disabled vehicles depends on several different things. How long had the vehicle been in the road before the accident occurred? Did the driver have the opportunity to move it but didn’t? Did the vehicle that crashed into it have enough time to avoid the accident? Based on the answers to those questions, liability can be put on either the owner of the disabled vehicle, or the vehicle that crashed into it. The law makes allowances for both, depending on the circumstances.
