Indeed, that's what the coppers do at the scene of most accidents when someone inevitably bumps into someone in the traffic jam that ensues. If you weren't quick enough on the brakes, you're driving without due care and attention. If you were driving too close, that's reckless driving. Either case, have some points and/or a fine.
