without a doubt, it's 100% the other driver's fault.
Don't worry about it.
1.Straight is always right of way
-next time, don't try to dodge it unless you are 100% sure you can, because it would have been your fault if you damaged the other car in the left lane.
2.Lane Changing
-No signal, no wait, no look, no nothing whatsoever from the white car. It is always the fault of driver, who is having any movement other than going straight, unless it was the turning signal.
3.Lane Type
-I can't see what type of lane it is, because the white car is blocking the view, but 99% of the time, there is a solid white line right before the complete stop, which prohibits drivers to change lane at the last moment to prevent accidents like this. (The only lane line you can pass through is the dotted lines, anything solid, you cannot freely pass through.)
I don't think your speed is really relevant in this situation, because even if you drove slowly this would've happened if you were close to that car. I am sure you would have had enough distance and time to brake if you were going slow though.
I also got in an accident before and totaled my car, so I know how it feels..
I was breaking down (man losing his car is more than good enough excuse to cry)
I mean this isn't going to help you in anyway about your damaged car, but don't worry about it. wish you the best man
