When you are driving in a parking lot, be careful to watch for people backing out of parking spots that may or may not see you in their blind spot. In most cases, if you do not "honk your horn" to signal the other car that they are backing into your vehicle, you would be considered 20% at fault for the accident. If you do signal the other car, such as honking your horn to acknowledge that you see them and they should stop before they hit your car, in most cases, they will be listed at 100% at fault and their insurance company (if they have insurance) will pay for the repair of your car.
The key here is that you see them backing into your car and someway notify them to stop, like honking your horn.
