If a parked car opens their door into you as you're travelling along the road doing everything correctly they are at fault.
If a pedestrian walks out in front of you, even or especially if they are drunk & they are found to contribute to their own demise they are at fault!
Pedestrians only have right of way on a marked pedestrian crossing.
If it was the other way around then who would want to drive on our already archaic road systems!
Mind you, being in the right if some dick opens a car door into you & sends you over the bars will be only a small consilation.
