changing over the solid line wasn't the cause of the accident.
I think it'll be 75%+ on the front car. Even if the car wasn't supposed to be there, it doesn't mean you don't need to check the spot.

For example, if you're parked a car length from the corner of an intersection, and there is a guy parked behind you, illegally, right on the corner of the intersection, if you back up and hit him, it's your fault, even though it's illegal for him to have been there in the first place.
