“From what I've read, it was an accident, no drunk or impaired driving mentioned.”

There are no vehicle accidents save those caused by faulty equipment. And even then, someone is negligent for not spotting the fault. You need not have impairment for liability. Stupidity (texting, etc) work well.

I agree.

There are very few automobile accidents. There are A LOT of automobile crashes.
