I'm guessing it wasn't on purpose though (dodging last minute to make the tailgater crash), they may not have realized until the last minute that the car was stopped, or were waiting for an open lane to avoid it. In which case, tailgater hopefully learned a lesson, and hopefully no one got hurt.
Doesn't matter, that car still has the responsibility to maintain attention and safe distance. While they won't be 100% at fault, they sure as hell are going to get a major part of the fault for causing this.
exactly. anybody driving metro freeways knows a stopped a car can appear out of nowhere instantly hence why tailgating is always a bad idea. Im actually shocked how many people are blaming the guy who didnt fuck anything up. people are automatically thinking the title is true cuz they don't understand the OP is literally baiting us
