You should always be looking behind you when backing up. You don't look forward when reversing because you're not moving in a forward direction.
check behind the car before getting in
Walk behind for a visual check
When there is something behind you that you don't want to hit, or that you don't want to fall over.
Look behind you and BEEP the horn.

Car 1 is at fault - the driver should have checked that the road was clear before backing back and should have continued to check that the way was clear while reversing. Definitly car 1
it is both of their faults because the person who was backing up should have look more carefully and the the other car should check where they are going
The car that is in motion is ALWAYS at fault.
Hard to say. Possibly equal fault by both parties but most likely the person backing out.
it is ALWAYS the fault of the backing driver. They bear the responsibility to make sure they can back with safety.
You should check to see if another car is following close behind you. If you stop unexpectedly, the other car might crash into you.
If you are hit from behind it is usually always the guy that hit you that is at fault unless you were in reverse backing up
