^i thought anytime you rearend anything it was your fault....that is what we were always taught...??? that is the "non celeb" rule anyway. 
if traffic is stopped for a flagman and you run into the cars it is your fault so that would be similar to stopped car in her lane???

Not defending Brandy here, but I had heard that the woman she hit had actually hit the person in front of her first, causing the car to slow down dramatically - that's when Brandy hit her. I think the DA would have charged her with something if there hadn't been some sort of contradictory evidence. Anyone else here read something to that effect?
i read that also, but the most poignant factor is the lady she hit, the one that actually caused the accident, had weed in her system. so see scot, there are exceptions to every rule.

LOL Multiple parties to blame. Why was the first vehicle "stopped"? Why was brandy unable to control her vehicle? What was her speed? How long and what direction were the braking skids? What is her driving history?

Note that this doesn't necessarily have any bearing on civil cases our insurance claims.

I'm just wondering if anyone saw that Jon Stewart episode from a long while back--during the last Michael Jackson trial (when Colbert was still on the show, and doing this interview)--"No one gets convicted in California. And therefore Jon, I'm going to fullfill my life long dream, and go bludgeon someone to death with a tire iron."

Did anyone catch this?
Last I heard, a man that loses his wife through death is a widower, not a widow.
Then there's Aboudihaj's husband-turned-widow, Maroune Hdidou, who claimed Brandy was driving "too fast for conditions" and "following too closely" and sought unspecified compensatory and punitive damages for the loss of his spouse.
