That wouldn't work because cars stop closer together than when driving down the road at speed. Each car has to reestablish safe spacing after a stop thus the delay in getting moving again when you are several (or many) cars back. Think of it like a slinky going down stairs as traffic flows from one stop light to the next when they are not synced up as a potential best case scenario.

It sounds as though you were driving straight ahead, the point of impact could be the driver's side door of your vehicle if you were making a turn at the time.

Case in point, years ago I was stopped at a stop sign when another vehicle entered the intersection incorrectly and, while turning, drove the side of their vehicle across the front bumper of my stopped truck's metal front bumper. The side of their car crumpled, but my front bumper just had a little paint from their car on it.
It's funny.  Laugh.

Anti Terror Honor System 74

Fortunately for us, the FAA has imposed the honor system as our next best defense against terrorism. Hopefully this will allow them to increase the volume of non-bladder liquid I'm allowed to take on planes.
