    LOL!!! If you're paying attention you can easily seen oil on the road!

    Stop making excuses. There are NONE when it comes to at fault crashes. You can be unfortunate and be involved when it's someone else's fault. But someone is ALWAYS at fault. It's why the Crash Investigation Units aren't called Accident Investigation Units. Because there's no such thing as an accident.

    That's Rijeka in Croatia. Most of the video is in winter when it gets down under 5 degrees so I'm thinking frost on the road isn't helping the fact that they are driving too fast in crappy, badly designed dungers - have you ever seen so many rear engined cars in one spot?

    You're wrong.

    Given the license testers let half blind people pass their tests, I doubt being able to see is a valid criteria for driving safely. So its is unreasonable to expect someone to look at the road while driving.

    No wonder you hit the armco on that cruise dude.. You don't even know how to read the road surface!

    I'd lay money that not all oil spills are visible.

    Not to mention things like black ice (though to be fair, if the conditions are conducive to the formation of black ice, you change your driving style to suit...)
    Nothing to see here...

    regardless of peoples comments , humans by default make mistakes often and regularly, no one is a perfect driver and can perfectly navigate there way out of every driving situation.although blaming the driver is only half the story, there are so many variables that arnt shown in the video that make it imposable to make an asumption like that. unfortunalty acidents arnt that simple. for all we know speed signs werent placed , road bitumen was not installed correctly, mechanical failure and medical condition of any variety were to blame (to name a few). if drivers soley were to blame or atleast the prodiminant reason for accidents we wouldnt need traffic investigation, wed simply look at the driving history and experiance of the offending driver instead.
