'accident' is a euphemism for collision. An 'accident' implies that the collision was the result of some unforeseeable condition that reasonable human effort couldnt prevent. it's become a word used to make people feel slightly less bad and responsible for their shitty driving.
semantics i know, but given the way that RTIs and are treated by the CPS and the media at large i think it's an important distinction to make.
