Assuming the question is asking in a three car accident the rear most vehicle doesn't strike the front vehicle, could fault be assigned to the rear most vehicle. Answer: Yes, in many states. Laws vary from state to state and depending on the circumstances and the reporting of the police officer on the scene. The officer would determine fault in the accident, which most typically falls on the rear most vehicle who initiated the collision. You are at fault for any vehicle you strike in a rear end accident.
