The answer here is that: more than one car can be found at fault in an accident. In Florida, we follow the comparative fault system. That means that the jury can apportion fault between more than one party or even a non party to a lawsuit. So if legal arguments are made that two or three people are at fault in an accident, a jury MAY apportion the fault between the parties. This is generally done in a percentage, so the jury would find 50 percent on one car and 25 percent on the other two cars. Now, if in the scenario presented, the jury is finding the total injury damages to be $10,000 and the person who is suing is 25 percent at fault and the other two cars are 50 percent and 25 percent at fault, then the injured person would collect $5,000 against the person who is 50 percent at fault and $2,500 against the other person who is 25 percent at fault.
