Most states have some form of a comparative fault system that allows victims to receive compensation regardless of whether their part of the blame is for an accident.

But the law is more complicated than that because there are two distinct forms of modified comparative fault rules. The first is the 50 bar rule.

Another variation is known as pure comparative fault. This allows victims to seek damages even if found to be 99 % at fault.
