I can spot two reasons for this accident (and others) occuring.
- We don't have any mandatory driver's training courses, therefore most drivers haven't a clue what to do when something goes wrong.
- Poor road conditions, and poorer judgement, which ties into my first point.
I would like to see mandatory vehicle control courses being run before licenses are handed out willy nilly. No amount of technology is going to save someone who does not know what to do.
I'd wager that I'm safer in my 87 VW with manual everything than the next "normal" guy with "Ultra nano technology traction control agility assist", and it all comes down to what you know. Luckily my driver's training was free in the form of a dad that knows how to drive.
