【解析】

试题分析：一辆出租车撞上一辆卡车。警察向出租车司机、卡车司机还有汤姆，询问情况。Tom是一个证人，这是他们所说的。

卡车司机：我从机场开车到牛顿。有辆汽车穿过马路，所以我慢下来但没有停止。一辆出租车撞上我的卡车后面。没有人受重伤，但两辆车被损坏。

出租车司机：我驾车开往牛顿跟在卡车的后面。卡车突然停住了。司机没能给我一个警告。我开得很慢。我不可能超越卡车，因为有两辆车从牛顿方向开来。我的出租车撞上了卡车，一些碎玻璃割伤了我的左手。

汤姆：一辆卡车从飞机场开往牛顿。它不是很快。后面的出租车开得很快。当卡车放慢，出租车撞上了它。当时出租车司机看着窗外的东西，没有注意到卡车降速。我的朋友也看到了这场事故。

汤姆的朋友对警察说他同意汤姆的说法。
