If is is unclear who was to blame for an accident, how is liability determined?
My wife hit a man on her bicycle when he crossed the bike path directly in front of her. In such cases or when there is no clear person at fault, is it typically assumed that the bike rider had more of an obligation to avoid the pedestrian than visa versa?
