Traffic laws do apply in a parking lot, and on public property. A person is responsible if you do faulty electric work and practically anything else if you do it without a license especially if it results in death.

Guess what - they're also liable if they do faulty work WITH a license.

Only if someone is, as in this case, injured or killed. In such instannces the responsible party (i.e. the father)can be charged with endangerment or neglegent homocide for failing to control the situation. If the girl had kept the car in the lot and accidently hit an unoccupied car, her father or his insurance company would be responsible for damages, but she would have commited no crime.
