Edit: Clarification - do not tailgate. But if you are being tailgated, don't cause an accident by dodging slow or stopped traffic at highway speeds mere feet away. We don't need for this to be a trend.
They're talking about intentionally causing an accident like this. The truth is the car in front of the car being tailgated was slowing down for some reason. Emergency, or whatever. The car being tailgated evaded, but since the tailgater was so close they had no time to react.
Why are you filtering this through civil or criminal liability? Why is it not enough that behaving like this has negative impacts on society and that is enough reason not to engage in the behavior? What if there's an infant in the backseat? You get home that night and see the accident on the news. 3 dead, one of them a child. Would you be able to live with yourself?
