[@AllySafety]

Hey, thanks for watching! What do you think the biggest differences are between accident and incident?

[@nicholleraghoo3393]

This Video, like all your other videos was interesting, fun and very informative. My understanding between the 2 terms have improved. Thank you for making this video after I requested you to explain the difference between these 2 terms. I cannot wait to watch your new exciting videos in future. Keep safe. AND THANK YOU :-) !!!

Hello, I supposing you had an employee who had been caught many times propping the fire door open. Would one treat this as an incident or accident.

[@frankpeck1448]

To put this in perspective, it's important to realize that I've been an EMS First Responder, for nearly a Half-Century...the term 'accident', is grossly overused, especially by news media, every single day. To be honest, there's also a stigma attached to the term, as well. If someone's behavior, leads them to drive fast and reckless, for example, and thus leading to a crash that maims or kills someone, the end result(s) are NOT an accident, but an act of gross negligence, which resulted in a crash, which killed someone. Statistically, more than 95% of all 'accidents', are preventable. Collision or crash would be a more appropriate term; why give the perpetrator a free ticket? True story: It was in the mid-60s, outside of Duluth, Minnesota...an estranged married couple, met in a bar, in Oliver, Wisconsin, hoping to iron out their indifferences, when the wife got upset and ran outside to her car, and took off, while her husband chased her on his motorcycle, at breakneck speeds. After traveling about 5 or 6 miles, she recklessly entered a curve, crossing the center line, and struck a car head-on, killing a family of five. Horrible crash. No survivors, including the woman who hit them. It was certainly NO ACCIDENT!.

Based on the definition and the events you described, wouldn't this be an incident, which was an accident? The fatal collision was an undesirable and unintentional happening that occurred without planning.

Thank you, now i finally get it

An incident is an event that happened that can be avoided if hazards have been properly identified, mitigated, and complied with. An accident is an event that happened wherein you have no control from happening and results in damage of property, harm, injury, or death.

This PSA brought to you by a plaintiff's lawyer near you. An accident suggests there's nobody you can sue. An incident or crash keeps hope alive that the lawyer will get their 30% contingency. Y'know, "accident" is just a figure of speech. I wouldn't even give a second thought unless the plaintiff's bar is worried... And then I'm skeptical

Bahahaha! Love the clips, very cool stuff! You have earned another subscriber \m/ Keep up the great work!

[@AllySafety]

Thanks for your feedback! I appreciate it.

[@UDAYKUMAR-jw7jo]

Seriously.. your explanation way was too good but after watching whole video it increased my confusion. again Surfing youtube for the clarification.

[@AllySafety]

Good luck in your search!

[@knighthauler4792]

Here where I work, an accident is if you fall of your bike. An incident is if you fall off your bike, injure yourself enough to warrant the help or involvement of some one else or EMS. Or you trip and fall on the job but suffer no injury. Or you trip and fall, twist your ankle, do a faceplant on the concrete and bloody your nose and then I get called as the company Medic or FA person on site to attend.

[@AllySafety]

Haha, good to know! Next time I faceplant on the concrete I'll keep this in mind. 😂

An Incident is an Accident that didn't happen, It's a near miss.
