The majority of states have some kind of comparative fault rule that allows victims to receive compensation even if their share of the blame lies with an accident. But the amount of their settlement will be lowered by their degree of fault. If, for instance, the jury awards $100,000 for your injuries, and then determines that you are at least 40% responsible, you will only receive $60,000.
