An knock-for-knock agreement is an agreement between two insurance companies, the policy-holders for whom have sustained losses in the same insured event (usually a motor accident), whereby each insurer pays the losses sustained by its own policy-holder, regardless of who was responsible for an accident.
Knock to knock agreement in a motor policy, is applicable to a situation when there is a collision between two vehicles. The insurers of the two parties involved come to a settlement that there would be no need to go into the question as to whose negligence caused the accident and agree to indemnify their respective insureds’ against the loss. The right to subrogation is also not exercised in this case. On the contrary, the insurers indemnify each insured as per the policy conditions.
So I think this would not be applicable in the above case as Insured vehicle is in parked and other vehicle damaged it.
