Not so. I see people accepting responsibility for their actions as important. Not necessarily the endpoint but very important. As I said, it not about...

Yes they are and that is precisely the point... which you are quite spectacularly failing to grasp.

No, they don't. There is bad driving and badly engineered roads. When the two meet, there is a big problem.
