I learned something new today!

A friend told me today that if, for example, lets say your on a hill and there's a car closely behind you, if your car rolls backwards and hits the car behind you, it's not your fault.

Its theirs for being less than a car length away.

You guys probably all knew this already, but naive me, just figured this out today.

I know about a couple of weeks ago, my neighborhood is off on a side street so there's a lot of stop signs, some SUV comes barreling behind me weaving side to side trying to get around me while I'm going through stop signs. (Note, its a one lane street) You can bet your ass I brake slammed them. They had to swerve to miss my car. I figured it was some young guy.. When I got to my street that I needed to make a left on, the SUV pulled up beside me...

It was a woman.
