It depends on your state laws, and I'm not sure what they are for Florida.
Either #5 pays for all, or #4 pays you and you pay #3.
IMO, #5 should pay all. I understand the logic of #5 pays #4, #4 pays #3 and so on, and it should apply when you are moving, but if you have stopped and managed to not cause a crash, it should all be on the party that caused the whole incident. Sure, it's easy to space out enough so that only #4 gets hit by #5 if #5 is doing 30 mph, but what if #5 is doing 90 mph? Should you have to account for that kind of spacing?
