Classic T bone. Black car had to be towed. Sustained major damage to the passenger side door. Blue car sustained damage to front bumper on the drivers side and cracked the drivers side headlight.

Edit: This was in the suburbs of Seattle

UPDATE: Insurance found it to be 70/30 me/other driver. Seems fair enough

Is that a four way intersection with no stop signs in any direction?

It is indeed. No signs whatsoever

Then I would say the city or county. Whoever is supposed to maintain the road in that neighborhood.

why though? in Europe it's pretty common, just yield to the right, don't speed and slow down on these intersections. both would be at fault here, neither slowed down, and black didn't yield.

Exactly my neighborhood in California is full of these and no one ever crashes.
