No... obviously that is not practical nor required by the MUP rules, but the reason you feel guilty is probably because you feel you could have been more cautious. Because people do stupid things like take up the whole pathway on a blind corner. Objectively it is not your fault, this sort of circumstance happens a lot, but next time i'd slow down for that same corner because getting into a crash is a gamble.

I hope you stood up for yourself, don't let the parents heft guilt onto you - because they were the ones breaking the rules.
Well Said
