Recently I was leaving my sister's house after dark and as I backed out of the driveway, I hit a black car parked on the other side of the street.
I went back in and told my sister, who was quite angry because her development has a home owners assoc. rule that no one is allowed to park on the street. This is because the builder intentionally built the streets very narrow and the driveways very shallow to get as many homes on the land as possible. The driveways zig-zag down the street, so anywhere you park on the street, you are parked behind a driveway, and there are no street lights. My sister said people who break this rule are just tempting fate. The developer put in two guest parking lots, so there is plenty room for visitors or three car families.
Still, we contacted the owner and a police report was filed, me being at fault. Obviously, the police can't enforce Home Owner Association bylaws. Can my insurance use the bylaws to deny the claim of the owner of the car?
