I guess if my front end meets your rear end because you hit the breaks, we would have to let the law or insurance companies decide who was in the wrong.
I am NOT trying to challenge you but your statement made me wonder.

I thought a person who ran into someone from the back was ALWAYS at fault, everywhere, for any reason, period and amen. I thought they would cite you for not keeping an assured clear distance.

Am I wrong?

What does it say on the drivers test?
