Please read ?lagsarlm under the tol.solve= item:

the tolerance for detecting linear dependencies in the columns of matrices to 
be inverted - passed to \code{solve()} (default=1.0e-10). This may be used if 
necessary to extract coefficient standard errors (for instance lowering to 
1e-12), but errors in \code{solve()} may constitute indications of poorly 
scaled variables: if the variables have scales differing much from the 
autoregressive coefficient, the values in this matrix may be very different in 
scale, and inverting such a matrix is analytically possible by definition, but 
numerically unstable; rescaling the RHS variables alleviates this better than 
setting tol.solve to a very small value

Does that help?

Hi all,
can any one of you see whats wrong in the code below?
>  model<-lm(Tcrash~X100MVMT+Alcohol+Alignment+PVMT, data=data)#works
> sar<-spautolm(Tcrash~X100MVMT+Alcohol+Alignment+PVMT,listw=WI_queenW, 
> data=data)#works
> lag <- lagsarlm(Tcrash~X100MVMT+Alcohol+Alignment+PVMT, data=data, 
> listw=listwW)#shows error
Error in solve.default(inf, tol = tol.solve) :
  system is computationally singular: reciprocal condition number = 2.44638e-12
> lag <- lagsarlm(Tcrash~X100MVMT+Alcohol+Alignment+PVMT, data=data, 
> listw=WI_queenW)
Error in solve.default(inf, tol = tol.solve) :
  system is computationally singular: reciprocal condition number = 1.51647e-13
> WI_queenW
