    Any rational appraisal of that accident puts the blame 100% on Ogier's shoulders.

    He tried to cut across the lane in to the bus stop without due care and attention and caused the accident. He was even under heavy breaking in a middle lane to make sure to make the bus stop.

    If he had stuck to his chosen lane there would have been no accident.

    overtaking - it's pass by opposite way lane. Pass at same direction only - "pass by"

    EDIT: That means you can drive which lane you want. The law doesn't care.
    i'm not sure about croatia, but in almost all european countries overtaking on the right is always forbidden.

    Croatia:
    73 road deaths per million inhabitants estimated in 2019, which is well above the EU average.

    No, on a motorway it's still overtaking per law.

    It's different in cities where it's simply impossible to make it forbidden to pass from the right.

    Overtaking yes but driving in the city doesn't recognize overtaking per law in Croatia (I am sure about it), here in CZ and in many other countries because it is simply impossible to force.

    Well yes, but we are also among the poorest EU countries and although we have good road infrastructure with lot of motorways, our cars are very old on average. But in 2020 there was giant decline in number of deceased, it's getting better.

    This is the first accident caused by a WRC car

    i'm not completely sure what that's supposed to mean. do the rules not apply in city's or what?

    in belgium and the rest of western europe, the only exception to the "always drive on the right" rule are traffic jams and when you are on an exit that leads to a different destination. but neither of those things apply here.

    but as i said, this could be different in croatia.
