Have you actually sat down and had a look at traffic laws ANYWHERE? Most times, a knowledge and understanding of traffic laws, as well as following them to the letter, would net you nothing short of an accident.

Traffic laws don't account for situational responsibility, they attempt to control it. If everyone used a little common sense, and some basic courtesy, we'd all have less of a chance of accidents. By the nature of the term accident, they'd still happen... accidentally.
