Yes, I am sure there are.  But it's unlikely that the examples being
presented here are of that type.  People just *THINK* their favorite
accidents are of that type.  Perhaps some of them are.  Most are not.

Based on the descriptions posted here you cannot be absolutely sure.  I
prefer to believe that all these descriptions are biased descriptions,
and that the majority of people posting here have CONVINCED their own
selves that they were in accidents they could not have prevented.
