Let's not blame victims for poor design.

I did not mean to suggest the victims in the article did not know what they were doing, just that you should probably get familiar with your vehicle’s safety features before driving it regularly. Of course that’s contingent on them being there and functional.

It’s possible they tried and it didn’t work apologies if it seems like I was trying to suggest that it’s their fault, I was speaking more to car owners in general than the subjects of the article.
