One could make the argument that the drivers were not aware of the dangers of driving on ice, but then it's a fault of the regulatory body that issues licenses to these people. However, I do think it's the drivers responsibility to assess the road conditions and pick an appropriate speed. Whilst it is a failure of government authorities to not de-ice the roads and spread salt, any driver can at any point in time be caught off guard by terrible weather, and they should be ready to deal with those situations.
