The last line reminds me of a poem I once read by Ronnie D. Laing:

They are playing a game.

They are playing at not

If I show them I see they are, I

shall break the rules and they will punish me.

I must play their game, of not seeing I see the game.

Of course they're going to blame the driver. Admitting anything else tends to lead to class action lawsuits. They're a business, not a lifestyle.
