@TalMorgan1991 @Pflax1 Roadway safety advocates have, for years, been fighting to get media outlets to change their narrative from "accident" to "collision." Let's be thankful that this outlet used the proper term, and leave it at that. See: https://t.c
Can @WCPN / @ideastream please stop calling car crashes accidents? This makes it sound like it wasn't preventable and frankly most car 'accidents' are the result of careless driving. https://t.co/pf547w8J7F

@ScottGreenfield Word Choice - To advocates for the most vulnerable road users “accident” connotes an truly unavoidable no fault Incident- “crash” means a person was at fault due to some stupid careless error, or worse- I’ve never said the word “accident”

@MontgomeryParks I know ya’ll don’t do traffic updates often but let’s avoid the word “accident”. #saferoutestoparks #visionzero https://t.co/ehFVYRy0VM
@WashCoScanner Newer terminology is MVC (motor vehicle crash or collision). ‘Accident’ implies nothing could be done to prevent it. Most MVC are a result of speeding, intoxicants, or distracted driving — all of which are avoidable. https://t.co/tZK85QZ4bM

@manishtanks @Cambam987 We do classify non-injury crashes as ‘minor’, but there there is never a motor vehicle ‘accident’ — all crashes are preventable. 🔰https://t.co/ezEqpPrNzu
@MauricioPena I highly recommend that you change the language in your article from "accident" to either "crash" or "collision". Using the word "accident" implies that no one is at fault. https://t.co/I7nps8ZC3X
