The second car can't be held responsible for the speed and distance of the third. When the first car stopped, the third car may have been travelling at a such speed and distance, it would have hit the first, even if the second hadn't been in the middle.
From an insurance perspective, you can't prove if the second car stopped in time and was shunted into the first, buy the third, so the guy at the back picks up the bill for the lot! So don't be at the back of a 30 car pile up, if you are and the guy behind you stops in time, reverse into him quick.
