Hell, I had a buddy that was stopped three cars up in line when a truck hit them all and shoved him into the car in front of him. The insurance company found he was 10% "at fault" because he "obviously" did not leave enough space between him and the STOPPED car in front. Made no difference with our no fault insurance but pissed him off royally.

Good to know, and a big WTF. The amount of rage I would exude towards the insurance company would be immeasurable.
