Who is responsible for damages by the City to my car?
I live at the end of a street thst is not listed as a dead end but the end of the street is the embankment of a dike that has the Allegany river on the other side. I have parked at the end of the 'street' for 45 years and my car was just backed into by a sand truck (the police found out after investigation)in the middle of the night. My trunk was crushed and the back windows' glass 'blew out'. I went to the village public works department anticipating that their insurance would cover the damages. They say that it is a street and technically I was parked illegally on the street and they are not accountable. They have been plowing and sanding this 'street' for years with 3-4 cars here at a time throughout the years. We have never been asked to move or make other parking arrangements. Does this seem right?
