156. It's more than a hunch. It's pretty clear. Vehicles need to allow enough distance ahead.

Yes, she may have stopped illegally, but cars sometimes have to stop abruptly for legal reasons. If a car stops suddenly in front and the car behind hits it, they more than likely didn't allow enough distance in front. It's why vehicles who rear end the car in front are very frequently found at fault no matter the reason for the vehicle stopping. People riding motorcycles should especially pay heed to this rule.
