It depends on the state, jurisdiction, and sometimes even the insurance company; however, in many cases, the vehicle from behind is at fault.

If the second vehicle is not capable of stopping in time, it's generally because they were following too close to the vehicle in front of them.

Assuming the question is asking in a three car accident the rear most vehicle doesn't strike the front vehicle, could fault be assigned to the rear most vehicle. Answer: Yes, in many states. Laws vary from state to state and depending on the circumstances and the reporting of the police officer on the scene. The officer would determine fault in the accident, which most typically falls on the rear most vehicle who initiated the collision. You are at fault for any vehicle you strike in a rear end accident.
