I fortunately have never been involved in a car accident, but my mother in law was involved in one recently, and of course it was the other guys fault, even though she rear-ended him. Rear ending in Utah is automatically the rear-enders fault, doesn't matter what sob story you come up with, and knowing her, she was on her cell phone or lighting a cigarette or just generally not paying attention.
I do think that people being so sue-happy these days and worries over insurance and such make people want to place blame on anyone but themselves.
