tactics by the other side no doubt to improve claim or personal injury claim... :\
it is unfortunately 100% your fault if you run into any vehicle in front , unless they pulled into your path. But agree that normally this would be an automatic settlement between insurance companies.

I bet not many people know that either...its de rigeur practice to reduce frivolous cases being brought....
