Is the Rear Vehicle Fully Liable for a Rear-End Collision When the Front Vehicle Brakes Suddenly on the Highway?

[LoganLynn]

When the front vehicle brakes suddenly on the highway, resulting in a rear-end collision, the rear vehicle is generally held liable. However, if evidence can be found proving the front vehicle's emergency braking, the front vehicle may also share responsibility. Below are the relevant details: 1. Liability Determination: Even if the front vehicle brakes suddenly, the rear vehicle is always expected to maintain a safe distance and speed. In the event of a rear-end collision, the rear vehicle will be held accountable. If evidence of the front vehicle's emergency braking is found, the front vehicle may also bear responsibility. 2. Prevention Methods: Generally, vehicles on the road should maintain sufficient distance between each other. The rear vehicle should not follow too closely, as adequate space and time are necessary to react and prevent accidents.
