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.

By traffic laws, I'm inferring both traffic laws and traffic awareness. Basic common sense.
And pretty much all accidents, 99.9999% of accidents happen accidentally in today's world too. I've never met anybody who said, let's see what it's like to rear end this car at the light. But it happens.
And hoping for people to use common sense across the board is a battle that was lost long ago.
