Not true to any degree of the law whatsoever. It's just easier to prove someone following too close, but it's not always that persons fault. Slamming your brakes in the middle of moving traffic on purpose for example, means you still caused the accident even though you're the one who got rear ended. It's called a swoop and squat and a reason why you see a lot of people in Russia with dash cams.
