You said it. You broke a law and caused property damage. Your fault tuff guy. How about this... you were on empty, your fault not the guy whose car you wrecked. You braking even a minor traffic law and expecting the guy who (I'm just guessing here but I would have assumed the same) was pretty sure you would be going forward has a banged up ass vehicle because you 1., made the mistake and were in the wrong lane and 2. backed up and hit the fucking car behind you.
