Three-car rear-end collision liability determination requires a comprehensive assessment by traffic police after on-site investigation. If the third vehicle hits the second vehicle, causing the second vehicle to hit the first vehicle, then the third vehicle bears full responsibility. Rear-end liability division includes the following scenarios: 1. The following vehicle bears full responsibility: When the following vehicle hits the preceding vehicle in motion; When the preceding vehicle has properly activated hazard warning lights and set up warning signs after stopping on the road. 2. The preceding vehicle bears secondary responsibility while the following vehicle bears primary responsibility: When the preceding vehicle fails to activate hazard warning lights or set warning signs after stopping on the road; When the preceding vehicle lacks taillights during nighttime driving.
