It can be, unless your brake lights don't work.
Any time you rear end someone, you are at fault. You are still at fault, you just got lucky that the person you hit left.
Under the "Following too closely" law the driver from behind is at fault.
you should report the accident to yours and the other drivers insurance company...typcially no matter how fast you had to stop they driver behind you must maintain a distance to be able to stop from hitting you .... thus being deemed neglient/liable/at fault for the accident
Backing up--it is your fault.
Anyone who hits someone from behind is at fault. Even though it may seem like the driver in front shouldn't have done what they did.
Hard to say. Possibly equal fault by both parties but most likely the person backing out.
Who is at fault when a vehicle is hit from behind on a freeway the driver in front for putting on there brakes and whatpenal code does it follow under?
