Default Hawker vs. Glider Midair - with photo!

Like when I hit another car from behind, prima facie it's my fault.
Not always... I had an incident where that was not the case...

"Prima facie" means "at first sight". The accident would be presumed to
be your fault "at first sight". The investigation acts as "second
sight" and in this case revealed other circumstances which shifted fault.

"Prima facie" does not mean "no matter what".
