Turn lanes/the idea of remaining one car length back

[fredtoast]

Also I don't think you will have any liability if you are sitting still and a car behind you drives you into the car in front of you.

It would be contributory negligence on your part if you were following to closely, but that only applies to when cars are moving. I don't think you can be charged with following to closely when sitting still.

I need to look this up.
