Fault when Rear ended at stop sign in car?

I was stopped at a stop sign and proceeded to inch out to see oncoming traffic(in Arizona) at a stop sign to make a right hand turn and the car behind me ear ended me? I was thinking about going however I saw a car coming into the lane I was going to turn into so I didn't go and was rear ended the driver that hit me said he thought I was going to go. I would assume he's at fault am I correct?

For a collision like the one you were in, he would be at fault. Unless of course you live in a no-fault state.

There are times when the car in front can be sited - for instance if you were driving wrecklessly etc. - nothing like what you are talking about though.

Yes, you are correct.

OHHH Glad you clarified that 'ear ended' thing. I thought you had a really bizarre accident of some type. HaHaHa Anyway, a rear end collision is always the fault of the driver in the back. You are expected to always have your vehicle under control and be able to stop for any unexpected situation. I would think the only exception would be if you intentionally jammed the brakes reallly hard at a speed that was more than just a slight roll for the sole purpose of causing a vehicle following you to collide with your vehicle and that would be up to the judge to make that intrepretation but highly improbable that is the case in your situation.

HE is at fault. You cannot go if it's not safe to go.

Yes he is at fault. And if your car is damaged I would sue the heck out of him! Some drivers these days are so stupid.

WHATEVER THE CASE IS IT IS VERY SIMPLE THE PERSON THAT HIT YOU IS COMPLETELY RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY AND ALL DAMAGES.

I WOULD ASSUME THAT YOU DID GET A POLICE REPORT FOR THIS.
