No, it will not help at all and you will just be burning a more expensive oil. If it is burning oil then the rings are worn and you need an overhaul. You can try moving to a slightly heavier oil as in going from 10w30 to 10w40 and it may help some, but there is no magic fix.

In CA who is at fault if a driver gets rear ended due to a sudden stop as he is switching lanes?

More information would really be needed to determine who would be at fault. Generally, the driver of the car that collided with another car is responsible for the accident. They were following too closely if they were in the lane the driver was switching from.However, if the driver of the car that was hit was switching lanes aggressively (in a manner that could have been considered to be reckless) and was rear ended by someone who was in the lane they were switching to they may at least share in the responsibility.
