An at-fault state is a state in which the driver of a vehicle is held liable for any damages caused in a car accident. This means that the driver is responsible for paying for any damages, medical bills, or other expenses that result from the accident. Kansas is not an at-fault state, which means that the driver is not automatically responsible for any damages caused in a car accident. Instead, the driver's insurance company will be responsible for paying for any damages. This can often lead to disputes between drivers and their insurance companies over who is responsible for paying for damages.
