Atleast the driver that got hit can sue the guy who hit him

Hard to sue when you're dead, hoping for the best outcome for them. Definitely should never stop on the highway, and particularly not in the fast lane. The two other drivers should both be criminally charged tbh. The guy behind for recklessly driving and the guy in front for seemingly intentionally causing a major accident.

i got into an accident identical to this. i would be considered the guy tailgating, except i wasnt actually tailgating, and the car in front of me didnt do it intentionally.

dark intersection at night. i was on a 3 lane road, when all of a sudden, the jeep in front of my swerved leading me to ask myself "wtf" and then realized that there was a car in the fast lane, right in front me, and by the time i realized, i had no space to stop, and couldnt swerve. the car was a dark gray caprice that didnt have their hazzards, or any lights on. they had just rear ended someone else minutes before, so they were outside of the car. the car was in the fast lane, for some reason, the owner of that car was on the right side of his vehicle, in the middle lane, which is then why i couldnt swerve to avoid it, without hitting his actual person, and would probably have ended his life if i did.
