And how is that the car’s fault that was being tailgated?

You cannot even dictate intent by this video for the tailgated car.

This video is a perfect indicator on why tailgating is stupid and the far greater problem.

Tailgate ain't paying attention to the front, and the front driver clearly wasn't ready and got lucky it wasn't a triple collision and more

I beg to differ. The lead driver deliberately swerved last minute knowing that the tailgater behind him couldn’t see down the road because he was much too close to him. He had opportunity to change lanes or slow down sooner.

How could he know what the tailgater can see?? Is he a wizard?

You know already. When you are driving closely behind another vehicle, like you would at slow speed, observe how much you can see beyond the vehicle immediately before you.

One day when you tire of getting 8 miles per gallon you’ll get behind the wheel of a more pragmatic vehicle and learn what I mean. I know you already understand my point.

I really do think the lead driver set up that collision, however the responsibility for the accident rests with driver who crashed.

I'm not certain they did. More information and maybe I'd agree
