A. The driver who boasts that they’ve gone 20 years without a citation or collision can be a driver who has a bad attitude about their driving. It’s likely they’ve developed progressively riskier driving habits over the years, but odds do catch up with those attitudes. Every time they get behind the wheel, their chances of a collision increases. Heinrich’s Pyramid, used to assess risk in the workplace, says that that there are 300 near-miss incidents for every 29 minor-injury incidents and for every major injury or fatality. With that in mind, the key to avoiding the minor and major incidents is to focus on the preventing the near misses and removing luck from the equation.
