Car A is travelling down a one way street in the correct direction at under the speed limit, Car B has just parked up. Car A proceeds to pass the stationary Car B Car B opens driver door and makes contact with rear door of Car A making quite a lot of paint damage. Car B then blames Car A for the contact and accuses them of speeding.
Who's to Blame?

Car A should anticipate car B Opening its door and given it a wider passing.

to an extent i agree with u AX, but 1) the road might be to narrow to allow wider passing, 2) it was the backdoor that car A caught so given both those two points i would say car B as car A has already started passing car B. also car B should have used their mirrors. they arent there just for when u are moving

its a 1 way road with cars parked both sides only allowing single file traffic down it, to give you a perspective, you would struggle in a transit. i.e no room to move over.

Thanks Guys,
I said to her that the other car was liable, but she was worried and didnt want to claim through the insurance if it was her fault, as the other car has no or little damage.

ahh lol, weird, usually it lets u sign and and automatically signs u out at other destination. anyway i personally think she should go for it, regardless of the amount of damage to the other car. any reasonable person would see that they were the root cause
