It's your husband's fault, but as long as they have insurance on that car, they can sue if injured. No fault will cover the medical bills, etc. If you get sued, just turn it over to your auto carrier. They'll defend him.

An individual has to be able to control their car at all times. This means that in the rain you drive slower. If the person was injured they will be able to sue you and the insurance company will cover you.

The accident MAY have been your husband's fault, whether or not she had a license, because he was following too closely. Notify YOUR insurance company so they can defend you.

In Michigan most probably not but you should confer with an attorney with all of the details. Normally if you hit a vehicle from the rear it is your fault.
