Person driving down the road spots someone in their driveway putting their vehicle into reverse and begin to back out of the driveway slowly. Common sense of the person driving down the road already expected complimentary common sense of the driveway motorist and not have their right of way jeopardized.
Final moment shows the person in the driveway had no common sense, doesn't yield to traffic on the road, doesn't even look to see if traffic is there, and admits this to the police officer on the scene. End result is an accident.
Vehicle already in the road and in transit actually attempted to steer out of the path of the driveway motorist, but the driveway motorist crossed both lanes of the road, colliding with a vehicle already traveling down the road.
Police officer on scene blames the motorist that already was on the road, and doesn't cite the driveway motorist for failing to yield. This officer believes that all motorists on public roads are required to yield to all vehciles not on the road. To further complicate the scene, the driveway motorist's insurance carrier refuses to pay for damages, and conveniently the police officer does a no-show for the court appearance.
I can learn a lot from a dummy (ahem, police officer): If I wish to wreck my car, I will simply back out of my driveway without looking, and conveniently when a much bigger vehicle is traveling down the road.
