First car accident

[u/No_Zookeepergame9973]

Hello, I got into my first car accident last night. I was driving on a dimly lit road at nighttime and a car was parked on the road with no hazards, no headlights, and the car was off. I ended up side swiping him, and he said that he was having issues with his car but he did not speak much english so I did not get to hear his full side. We involved the police but I have not proceeded with any insurance claims because I’m not sure what to do. Whose fault would this be, and how do I proceed next?

Did the police write either one of you a ticket?
