That's all very nice in theory but, in the actual real world, if you do a lot of unpredictable braking or other unexpected behaviors, you will basically get hit all the time even if those accidents aren't technically your fault.

Soon people will either adapt and end up following the law, or they will be unable to pay for insurance, because of the amount of claims that they're taking out against it.

I generally not a fan of social darwinism, but in this specific case, I think that something of the sort will have a positive effect. How many people have been injured because the car they were hit by was being forced to go faster, because of tailgaiting?
