Contrary to what everyone else is posting here, road accidents do not just happen. There is some sort of failure to obey a vehicle law - either through negligence (not paying attention to traffic, vehicle mainainnence issues, or modefied equipment on vehicles, roads, etc) or through willful mis-conduct (speeding, tailgating, agressive driving, theft of road signs etc). |
