The one who hits the other in the rear end is At Fault, no matter if the person in front of them has working lights are not, because by law they will say you were following to close and should of had enough distance between you and the other car to avoid the collision.

Which driver is at fault if a vehicle was rear ended with only one of three brake lights working and no insurance?
The presumption is that if you were rear ended, the other driver is at fault. The brake lights not working is a mitigating factor, but the bulk of the blame still goes with the other driver. Insurance doesn't have any relation to fault. But it coculd get you a ticket.

What fuse is the brake lights wired into on a Citroen Xsara Picasso?
The brake lights are NOT fused seperately, which is why it will not tell you in the handbook. The brake lights will be fused through the ABS circuit. However, if you are looking for this information i assume none of your brake lights are working. If one brake light is out it will be the bulb, look back through this section a few weeks to find out how to remove the rear light cluster. If all your brake lights are out but you are not getting an ABS fault on the display then it is a faulty brake switch. This is located behind the dash mounted near the top of the brake pedal, it is a cheap and easy to replace item. If the fuse for your brake lights was blown then it would also knock out the ABS and you would have a fault on the display and a warning light on the dash. In which case a trip to your local dealership would be in order as this would be beyond your ability to diagnose.
