Last night, in the parking lot of a Home Depot, my mother and I were looking for a space to park. She finds one, on our right. She goes a little left to get a good angle with what I feel to be perfectly good speed (but without using her turning signal) and she started to turn right. Suddenly, within half a second of us already turning right, I see a car come up on our right, to the point of I had to yell to stop. My mother did, and when she did, the other car was already next to us, stopped, most definitely because she had nearly been in an accident. Apparently they exchanged dirty looks, but I didn't look at either one. The other car then backed up and we parked ... then the other car went into a handicapped space. Yes, they had the handicap sign in their car.
Who would have been wrong if there was an accident? Would we have, because we would have hit her side? And we didn't use a turning signal? Or, logically (although maybe not legally), her fault, because she decided to immediately try to pass someone in a parking lot by flooring it by them?
