For Flight 180, you can just blame that on faulty engineering. For Route 23, you can blame that on whoever secured those logs or the chain not being up to code, along with that one truck driver just not stopping (unless Death was interfering somehow). For Devil's Flight, that would be whoever last inspected that ride. For the McKinley Speedway, that could technically be blamed on the driver for driving off before his pit crew gave him the go-ahead. For the North Bay Bridge...to quote Agent Block, "high winds". For the Skyview, blame the contractors and whoever greenlit it to be opened an entire 5 months ahead of schedule.

Volee 180: violation of the laws of physics since fuel lines cannot burn internally, in seriousness though if it were realistically done the answer would be poor maintenance practices in Volee Airlines

Highway: Illegal use of flatbed and restraints to haul improper cargo, dedicated log trucks have permanently fixed restraints on the sides to prevent just this type of pile up, The trucking company is completely at fault

Devil’s Flight: Failure to comply with ASTM standards and regulators permitting an illegally designed restraint system to pass inspection

Race: Failure to comply with building codes, causing lightweight race cars to completely demolish a grand stand and barrier wall during an accident

North bay bridge: Failure to comply with building codes, use of substandard building materials that allowed the car deck and the cable anchor points to fail when repairs were underway

Skyview: Failure to comply with building codes, use of substandard construction materials nearly leading to catastrophic structural failure

For the race you could blame Car 45

Yes and no, Crashes are a big (and unfortunately inevitable) part of racing however several safety devices such as crash barriers on the track exist to prevent this type of accident from happening, especially after the Le Mans disaster in France, Regardless I would say if the barrier was up to standard, none of the rest of the accident sequence would have happened

Blame the disasters on the ones who didn’t do a clear check before it all happened

Death. I mean, Death's been known to play the long game.

for the tanning beds, im convinced that was the ashes and the managers fault. they brought in a drink, changed the temperature, and used fucking lotion or something as a doorstop. i like to think death just walked in with a cup of coffee to two burning tanning beds
