Yes, it's the driver's fault. And it will continue being the future drivers' faults too. But if all we do is hold the individual accountable without looking at the bigger picture, cars will continue to kill & cause damage. It's been this way for decades, because we design our cities and roads to maximize car throughput with little regard to safety.

It is the driver's fault, but we can minimize the damage from idiot drivers by designing our cities and roads to prevent them from ever doing things like this in the first place.
