The dude who rear-ended us was like "you slammed on your brakes, it's your fault."

I was like,"no dude, you rear ended us which means you were to close to us to begin with, that's pretty much day 1 stuff in driver's ed." He kept telling me I was wrong until the cops told him the same thing.
technically would it be their fault if the driver in front didnt have working break lights? Might be hard to prove after an incident but im sure its happened in the past and it has crossed my mind more than once.
