Rules regarding Police interviewing a minor w/o a parent vary in each state. There is also a difference between determining what happened in an accident and a criminal "in custody" questioning.

2) It should be easy to determine fault by examining the accident scene.....Which vehicle was over the centerline? Did you notice where the debris, skidmarks, or any fluids were located on the road. Any photo taken by you, your son or the investigating agency?

3) Usually, the police report will try to determine fault and cite for any alleged violations. What the insurance companies determine could be different.

Ideally, an independent witness is best. Photos and physical evidence next best. Like you see, driver statments are not always reliable. G'luck...
