Car accident, not my vehicle, not my fault on private property am I liable?
Find answers to your legal question.

I was about to pull out of my apartment complex when all of a sudden I heard a crash. It was a Hyundai that hit the right side of my dads truck and his front bumper got knocked off. I was at the exit first and there is limited room for two cars. He is blaming me. I say he should have waited his turn since only one car at a time can exit.

If he hit the car it's his fault. No ifs, ands or buts. If you are not involved in the accident it's not your fault. If you pull out of an intersection and an oncoming car swerves to miss you and hits someone or something else, it's not your fault. There is no evidence of you pulling in front of him. Did you get a Police report? If not, he has no recourse. You were an innocent witness. Let me know if I can help further. What state do you live in because each state has different liability laws.
