What if the accident was partly my fault?

Many accidents are not black and white. It’s common for people to worry that they can’t do anything if they were partially at fault.

Being partly at fault does not automatically mean you have no options. Liability can be shared, and details like injuries, insurance coverage, and circumstances still matter.

It’s important not to assume the outcome on your own or say more than necessary at the scene.
