it depends why car 1 stopped. if it was red light and car 1 stopped then it was car 2s fault. if car 1 stopped for no reason, and car 2 hit it, it would be both of their faults.

Another View: The first contributor is correct in stating that the driver of Car #1 MIGHT have contributed to the accident however, the drivers of Car #2 and Car #3 would be charged with either Following Too Closely, or Failing to Give Full Time and Attention to their driving.
