Laws are different by state/jurisdiction. To be sure you should check with an attorney licensed to practice in Guam. That being said each driver/owner is responsible for their own actions. The other driver may be liable for banking hard left to make a u-turn. Whether or not they can go over a double solid line is up to Guam law. That being said, your driver/owner is responsible for t-boning the other vehicle if they could have avoided it. Good luck. THIS RESPONSE DOES NOT IMPLY OR CREATE AN ATTORNEY-CLIENT RELATIONSHIP.

This is the sort of a collision case that has to be recreated frame-by-frame on paper and with an explanation before anyone can give a fair liability determination. When you say you have a driver that was following a vehicle, it leads to the possibility that they were following too closely and failed to keep their car in control, helping to contribute to the cause of the crash. Both drivers may share a percentage of fault. This answer is provided for informational purposes only.

Determination of liability and fault based on a quick statement is always hard to impossible. There are a lot of factors here and the other answers allude to it as well. These things are very fact oriented and it is possible that both drivers here may be at fault.
