"Accident" doesn't mean there's no blame. It means whoever caused it didn't do it on purpose.

When machines buildt by man do things they're not supposed to, there's always someone to blame. It doesn't mean that person is an idiot or had ill will. It just means that someone made a decision, however good it seemed at the time, that led up to something bad happening.

There was someone to blame for the Challenger exploding. There was someone to blame for the Tacoma bridge collapsing. And there was someone to blame for this train coming off the tracks and crashing into a house.
