Not enough info here to give an opinion. Usually rear end collisions are the fault of the stiking driver however there are circumstances when the stuck driver is At Fault such as failure to yield , failure to stop or improper lane change etc. The investigating officer will determine who is at fault or a traffic court judge will.
