people that rearend somebody and refuse to accept that they were at fault no matter how patiently it is explained to them.
Actually there are times when the rearended are in fact at fault, and it is just as ridiculous when they deny their own culpability.
I was in a car (I wasn't driving) that was moving along a rather important street during a heavy snow fall. Visibility was good enough, but the streets were extremely slick.
Some lady pulled out of a parking lot onto the street ahead and then stopped, or nearly stopped, right in front of us. Of course we hit her.
Her defense before everyone, including stunned and exasperated police was that our car had to be at fault because we rearended her. She could not have been expected to accelerate onto the street, and indeed should have been expected to stop once she entered the street because of the icy conditions.
Cases like this also occur at sites where roads merge onto highways and people slowdown or stop, rather than accelerate into traffic. Sometimes the timid are as dangerous as the aggressive.
