I actually read the thread yesterday and didn't actually post until today. I didn't remember you saying specifically that you were looking at the girl instead of the road when it happened but did remember your eyes were away from the car/road in front of you.

I can't say I have a lot of sympathy for drivers who rear-end others in situations like this as it means they were following too close for the level they were concentrating on what is going on in front of them.

Not that I think my age is all that relevant but I am 26. I honestly don't even understand how people can look away from the road like that except in cases when its necessary (looking over your shoulder) which should take around 500-750ms. The only time i ever might rear-end or hit someone who was in front of me is because they pulled out in front of me and even immediately applying breaks would not slow me down enough to hit them.
