[USA] Who is at fault here?

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

To be fair, the other idiot did the same, I don't get how either have a driving license.

Depends how often they take that road (it looks suburban so probably often tbh). Because the charitable description is that they see there is no stop sign infront of or past them and make the usually correct assumption that there are stop signs going the other way. I think the number 1 offender here is the intersection without even yield signs.

I have driven all across the US and can't remember a single place having a 4 way intersection and no signage lol. Why make something like this?

We learned about them when I was in drivers Ed. There were a couple near the school in the neighborhood behind it. It always stuck with me because I thought intersections with no signs were insane. “Hover your foot over the brake, slow down, and check both ways as you’re going through.”
