Today, I saw a portable speed camera on the highway and braked hard. I caused a 4 car pile-up and my car is totaled. It wasn't a speed camera. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I was speeding a little on the highway. I thought I saw a police car, so I slammed on my brakes, causing the person behind me to rear end me. The "police car" I saw was just a broken down car on the side of the road. FML
Today, I was driving a little over the speed limit, when I saw a cop car waiting to join the road ahead of me. I quickly hit the brakes so they wouldn't have a payday with me. I hit the brakes too hard, lost control and almost ended up on someone's lawn. FML
Today, I crashed my car while racing backwards, so told my parents I was rear-ended. They made me call the police and file a report. I hope there were no cameras. FML
Today, I was driving on the highway and a cop had his radar gun out. The woman in front of me panics and slams her brakes on, causing me to rear end her. The cop cited me for "tailgating" and I have to pay for the damages on both of our cars. FML
Today, I was tailgated on the highway. There was a car in the lane next to me, and my tailgater was WAY too close to risk slowing down, so I sped up in order to switch lanes, which bumped me over the speed limit. That's when my tailgater turned on the flashing lights. FML
Today, I crashed into a pole on purpose as a cop pulled me over for speeding. I figured the officer would feel bad for me and that the cost of fixing my car would be less than a ticket. He gave me one anyway. FML
Today, I rear-ended a car while I was texting about the accident ahead which was causing all the traffic. FML
Today, I accidentally rear-ended an undercover police car. FML
Today, I got rear ended. The guy flashed his lights at me to pull over, so I pulled into the side of the road. He drove away. FML
Today, I rear-ended someone while trying to watch my odometer hit 80,000 miles. FML

You ought to lose your license. From personal experience with a jackass who did the same thing to me, I can tell you that your insurance isn't going to compensate your victims the true value of their vehicles. They will be out several thousand dollars and loads of time dealing with the mess because of what you did.

Drivers have a responsibility to maintain a safe distance. Following to close and I attentive driving by the other vehicles is what caused the accident. Why the driver braked does not change that the others should have been able to stop.

Whilst I agree with you to a certain point, if the OP braked really, really hard it's possible that they lost control of the car and skidded. Also, the drivers behind him might have assumed that if there was a need to brake hard enough to mimick an emergency brake, then they'd have been able to see it as well rather than waiting for the car in front's brake lights to come on.

I wanna know how you thought that was a good idea? You could've killed people just because you didn't want a ticket. People like you are what make driving so dangerous.
