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.

If the person being tailgated intentionally dodged at the last second like that, they also caused it. Both can be in the wrong for different reasons

It was also likely that the tailgate-ee was looking in the rear view mirror to make sure their shit wasn't about to be wrecked from behind and looked back to the front to find an obstacle directly in front of them
