My two children and I were one of the accidents involved (black Dodge Durango). The report is inaccurate in that I had to slam on my brakes to avoid the accident (I intentionally told the officer that I did not slam on my brakes, but rather was just applying them). I could see that the traffic was backed up on the main hill, therefore I was driving at a low rate of speed. I also had a good amount of distance between my vehicle and the car in front of me (about two car lengths). I started to apply my brakes as I saw traffic coming to a stop. The car behind me was driving much closer and she did not react with enough time and consequently hit us from behind.

This is no more information than would have appeared in a newspaper account of the accidents. But nowadays, local news is very hard to come by. I appreciate the details. I'm sure if somebody had died, deference would be provided to allow family to be contacted before naming a victim.
