Then again, you could of course question how much of an accident such an accident is: It's always a product of the circumstances and environment it happens in and the forces which shape that environment.
Like "greed for speed" (which expands into greed --> competitive pressure to sell --> speed as sales argument); engineering machismo; corporate structures which reward "performance" (of staff) over honesty, leading to rush jobs and possibly cover-ups (first internal, then external), etc etc.
We've pretty much designed our economies and societies -- or at least allowed them to evolve -- that way, so we've only got ourselves to blame. In the sense of "Nope, this wasn't really an accident; it was 'an accident' waiting to happen, and you knew (or should have known) it."
(Like so much else, from climate change and oceans of plastic, via black lives not mattering to the police and lead in the water, to Trump and Roy Moore. None of them really "accidents", are they?)
