What do I do in this scenario?
A couple of days ago, I asked the question:
"I saw this obstruction today and I wondered who would be at fault if there was an accident. There was a guy mowing someone's lawn but his truck was completely on the road to where you had to get on the other side of the road just to pass him. Well, the genius decided to park right ahead of a bend in the road and you can't see if anyone is coming so you just have to go and hope for the best.
If I had to go on the other side of the road and got into a head on collision, would it be my fault or would it be the lawnmower's fault?"
Two people responded and they both said that it'd be my fault.
My question is: What do I do? If I turn around and go a different way, it will add an extra 10-15 minutes and make me late to my class.

It would be your fault with the party you hit, However you may be able to go after the parked trucks owner that was obstructing the road. This ultimately comes down to the officer filling out the accident report and how they find.

If you did have a head on collision under this special case the police most likely would dub it no ones fault, however it still is an accident waiting to happen.
If the is a reoccurring event I'd do one of a few things.
1. Leave a little early to take the long way.
2. Ask the guy cutting grass to park in a different spot.
